Default Route Interface

RouterOS Beginner Basics
1

I configured the default route using Winbox >IP Route and click apply.
This activate the correct interface(ethernet2) connected to the ISP router.
After rebooting the default route points to another ethernet interface(ethernet1).
How do I bind the default route to the specific interface-ethernet2??

describe how you set the default route

3

what is on ethernet 1? maybe you get default route from antoher side of eth1, maybe ether 2 is not running yet after reboot… do ip route print and c/p

4

the default route is set to point towards the next hop ip which is a cisco router connected to the internet(default gateway)

There is no connection to ethernet 1. Its just a lan port used to access the winbox via lan cable on site.

[admin@xxxx NAS] > ip route print
Flags: X - disabled, I - invalid, D - dynamic, J - rejected,
C - connect, S - static, r - rip, o - ospf, b - bgp

2 DC x.x.x.128/25 r 0.0.0.0 0 ether1 should not be there
try this, with winbox:
Interfaces Menu, select the interface ether2, ‘General Tab’ change the ‘Master Port’ to none, assuming you have routerboard, if you have x86 this will not be available.
