Indeed not. In this case (I know the return route goes to GX as well, but directly so, and then to the target network in the most direct way) it might be just be a bad choice (accidentally I presume) of the best path to a destination, and that kinda happens it seems if you have several links with a single provider. No clue why closest-exit is not done. But then, what do I know, I can only guess here. Alexander
