How routing works in Networking Hubs

When using Networking Hubs, much of your routing requirements will be configured by default. These default configurations can be discovered by reviewing the resources created in AWS, or visually using the concepts displayed in this document. To modify these routing configurations, consider utilizing advanced routing.
