In static route, what is the difference between next hop ip
address and local interface address, except the
Administrative Distance.
Answer Posted / bhanu
I think if we configure the interface addd. instead of the
IP address of the next-hop router in the path, this
connection must be point-to-point (not multiaccess).
In case, the router's egress (outbound) interface is
multiaccess link (Ethernet, Frame-Relay, ATM etc.), we must
NEVER use local interface but IP address of the next-hop
router instead. If we do not follow this recommendation,
the router will try to resolve the layer 3 to layer 2
address for every destination out that interface. This
leads to serious inefficiency and shows little
understanding of routing operation of a person who used it
