I have this as my route table..
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
198.63.45.0 198.63.42.21 255.255.255.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
198.63.42.0 198.63.45.20 255.255.255.0 UG 0 0 0 eth1
198.63.40.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1
169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
0.0.0.0 198.63.42.254 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
