Where can I see the default route?

[Dave_]

For our MX450 appliances I see lots of static routes under Addressing & VLANs but nothing that says 0.0.0.0 or "Default" or anything like that.

I found reference to setting it during initial config but that was by connection laptop to the Meraki and browsing to setup.meraki.com.

Thanks

Security & SDWAN > Monitor > Route Table should reflect it, at a minimum, the "default WAN route" for the 0/0 network out the WAN uplink.  Also note that recently there is a "new version" and "old version" of that route table page in Dashboard.

Thank you.  I looked at that but didn't look enough.  Two follow on questions:

I see 0.0.0.0/0 with a next hop of "WAN uplink".  Does that mean it will fling it out the WAN port and hope for the best?  I'd prefer to see an IP there.

Where do I change it?  Can I add a static to 0.0.0.0/0?

Correct @Dave_ the gateway of last resort so to speak is always out of any active WAN interface for any MX or Z appliance.  And that's also correct, you can certainly add your own 0.0.0.0/0 route and that should be reflected in the same route table, for example if you want to have a 0/0 route pointing out via a LAN interface and/or shared over an AutoVPN.

Yeah, I just found the default gateway config under Appliacance Status.  That's cheating though, there shouldn't be configuration bits under a heading that says Monitor because people (*cough*) won't look there.

Thank you, and Thanks for confirming that the static for 0.0.0.0/0 will work as well.
