      You are using 8.8.8.8 as a monitoring IP for EOLOGW so traffic will always be statically routed that way. That makes it a bad IP to test against.

          @stephenw10 why it's a bad IP?

            Because it's statically routed so it may behave differently to a random IP.

            For example if the firewall had no default route or a bad default route you would not be able to reach any public IPs. But 8.8.8.8 would still be reachable because it has a specific route.
