This menu displays the current routing table and the state of the router's interfaces.
Select the Refresh link in order to refresh the display.
The entries under the Destination field reflect the network or host which can be reached through this
route. The "default" entry matches any packet which has not already matched another route.
The entries under the Via field reflect the address of the gateway to route packets through to reach
the target network. The field is blank for non-gateway routings.
The entries under the Device field reflect the name of the interface this route belongs to. Packets
using this route will be sent on this interface.
The entries under the Metric field reflect the cost of this route. The route with the lowest metric
matching a destination is used.
The entries under the Protocol field reflect the system that created the route. It is one of
"kernel" (default interface routes), "core" (dynamic routing protocol routes), “redirect” (routes added
due to ICMP redirect message) or "static" (for manually added routes).
The entries under the Source field reflect the source address to use when originating a packet to a
destination matching this route. Note that packets routed through the router have their own source
address. Note that if the sending application decides to, it can manually specify the source address.
The entries under the ToS field reflect the ToS value a packet must match to be routed by this route.
The entries under the Weight field reflect the relative bandwidth or quality of this link within a multi-
path route. Note that multi-path routes are shown with multiple lines for a single destination.
