I suspect you will have a single default gateway listed, the last column on the right should list which interface that default gateway will use. If the default gateway is on the interface you took down then I would expect that route to go away. However if it is on the other interface that remains up then I would expect that route to stay in the router table. If it does go away then you should file a bug report because it sounds like the decision to remove routes is based on the IP addressing not the interface itself that went down. -- Scot L.
