I see three. Got > an "H (target is a host)" flag too. Both 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.2.5 are "default" gateways. (dst=0.0.0.0). Any traffic for which a more specific route doesn't exist will be sent via 192.168.1.1 (metric=100). 192.168.2.5 is a "backup". 192.168.56.6 is a directly connected host connected to 192.168.2.116. That route is only used, for example, when ssh'ing to that host. > Since I presume it works, there is something > new to be learned!
