Nex-Hop Information

Hello everyone,

I am learning networking and have a couple Juniper devices configured. I have a specific question regarding next-hop routing options. Is a static next-hop routing option necessary? I had an EX-4200 Juniper switch configured without a static next-hop route or any sort of route configured and it was working perfectly fine. However, when using Netdisco I was unable to discover it or see it until I configured a static route to another Juniper switch which acts as the main switch and connects to the ISP for my network. Any help in understanding what benefit a static route gives would be greatly appreciated.
