Hi there,

This configuration means that in the case of no match in the routing table (populated with either EIGRP or static routes) the default route is used having the next hope 192.168.100.17(CORE SIDE), there is no problem by doing this as a Gateway of last resort.

HTH, please rate if it does help,

Mohammed Mahmoud.
