LAB: What happens when you are assigned 2 gateways

Had a client ask me what would happen if you assigned 2 default gateways to a windows client?

For example, to surf, download and check your email, run a default iperf test to determine your throughput. For audio calls, video calls, remote desktop, or streaming, you should consider iperf UDP tests to record your jitter and packet loss.
