Bridge Commands

ip route purge

Minimum Access Level: Administrator

Deletes all IP route table entries, including interface routes and those automatically added
by DHCP Server and DHCP Relay agent.

mask are assigned to an Ethernet interface with the

ifn address

command. The

Ethernet interface route can be deleted with the

ip route purge
