Re: IP address

[Pranjal Kumar Dutta <pranjalkumardutta@xxxxxxxxx>]

Its mostly used as default address in Routing..any other traffic whose destination doesn't match any entries in Routing table will be matched to default address. Example..."ip route 0.0.0.0
 subnet-mask 0.0.0.0 gateway eth0" etc. etc.

Thanks a lot
