Field

Description

Destination:

Specifies the IP address of the destination
computer. The destination can be specified as
the IP address of a specific computer or an entire
network. It can also be specified as all zeros to
indicate that this route should be used for all
destinations for which no other route is defined
(this is the route that creates the default
gateway).

Netmask:

Indicates which parts of the destination address
refer to the network and which parts refer to a
computer on the network. The default gateway
uses a netmask of 0.0.0.0.

NextHop

Specifies the next IP address to send data to
when its final destination is that shown in the
destination column.

IFName:

Displays the name of the interface on the device
through which data is forwarded to the specified
next hop.

Route Type:

Displays whether the route is direct or indirect. In
a direct route, the source and destination
computers are on the same network, and the
router attempts to directly deliver the data to the
computer.
In an indirect route, the source and destination
computers are on different networks, and the
router forwards data to a device on another
network for further handling.

Route Origin:

Displays how the route was defined. Dynamic
indicates that the route was created automatically
or predefined by your ISP or the manufacturer.
Routes you create are labeled Local. Other
routes can be created automatically (using RIP),
or defined remotely through various network
management protocols (LCL or ICMP).

Action:

Displays and icon (

) you can click to delete a

route.
