Normally a linux machine has 3 routing tables, they are:

- default routing table (numerically table 253)
- main routing table (numerically table 254)
- local routing table (numerically table 255)

If you would like to see what is in each of those tables the commands
"ip route sh table [local|main|default]".

To properly route traffic to the Internet when you are multi-homed you will 
have to resort to advanced routing tricks (unless you have a smart router in 
front of your machine).


    ip route add default via 192.168.0.254 table 192
    ip route add default via 172.16.0.254 table 172
