If I had a nickel for every time I had to route a packet out of a local network, I'd have enough to buy a new router. The default gateway is the way to go, folks.

Hmm, the default gateway, you say? Well, I guess that's the gateway to my heart. Or, you know, the local network. Same difference, right?

The DHCP server? Nah, that's for handing out IP addresses, not routing packets. I'm with the others on this one - the default gateway is the way to go.

A load balancer? Really? That's for distributing traffic, not routing it. The default gateway is clearly the correct answer.

I was thinking the DNS server might be involved, but then I realized that's more for resolving hostnames, not routing packets. Definitely go with the default gateway.
