Example of a Routing Table for the Network in Figure 5-55
Destination Subnet Router “A” Next Hop
10.1.0.0/16 Router “C”
10.2.0.0/16 Router “D”
10.3.0.0/16 Router “B”
10.32.0.0/16 Router “B”
10.42.0.0/16 Router “D”
Note that IP load-sharing does not affect routed traffic to different hosts on
the same subnet. That is, all traffic for different hosts on the same subnet will
go through the same next-hop router. For example, if subnet 10.32.0.0 includes
two servers at 10.32.0.11 and 10.32.0.22, then all traffic from router “A” to these
servers will go through router “B”.
