If none of the routing entriies match destination IP address and the gateway of last resort is 0.0.0.0 what will happen to the packet? Will the router drop the packet?

Your entry should read something like "Gateway of last resort is x.x.x.x to network 0.0.0.0" if so the device will not drop the packet but pass it onto x.x.x.x
