I don't think so, assuming you are using static routes. Even if an interface is down, the system is still attached to that network even though it won't use it; so that is still a valid route even if it can't be used. If you "destroy"-ed that interface I bet the route would dissipear. Or you could use a dynamic routing protocol. -- -- Perfection is just a word I use occasionally with mustard. --Atom Powers--
