These comments suggest that there are multiple routes to be selected
from.  However, this output:

suggests that there is only ONE default route, pointing to ONE
interface, igb0.  Without an extra default route that is also pointing
to igb1, I can't see how the system woudl ever forward traffic out igb1,
unless it was directed to the local /25.
