Static route targets may still reachable via default route when the gateway they should route through is down
0%
Description
https://forum.netgate.com/topic/160103/static-routes-not-as-expected:
When WAN gateway is down, I can still access/ping stuff that is set "static route" thru the primary WAN.
`/etc/rc.gateway_alarm` must delete static routes entries for that gateway

Fixed.
If WAN GW is down I cannot ping even if there was static route.

Per Jim T, reverted this from 2.6.0 and 2.5.2. It appears to be causing some unintended side effects.
Can revisit a different approach, or perhaps making it optional and off by default, for the next release.

Moving ahead, too close to release to make another attempt at this and have enough time to validate the change in behavior.

Static route is still reachable while WAN gateway is Marked Gateway as Down.

Thank you for reporting this issue, I have a very similar problem. In my case, I added a static route that goes through a routed IPSec tunnel (VTI). When the tunnel goes down, the traffic for that static route still tries to go through the tunnel and get lost. When the tunnel is down or the IPSec VTI gateway is unreacheable, I would like the static route that uses the VTI Gateway to be removed from the routing table and have the traffic be routed using the remaining routing table.

While this can be confusing, any solution tried thus far has broken more than it has fixed. If someone wants to pick it up and try we can look at proposed solutions, but for now there isn't a compelling reason to keep it on a specific target.
