No. The default gateway on the HP ProCurve Switch 2650 and Switch 6108 is used when the products are configured as Layer 2 switches and the traffic is destined off-subnet. When routing is enabled, the default gateway is not used, and will not be displayed when using the “show ip” command from the Command Line Interface (CLI).
