routes - display routing table information

routes [n]

Command routes displays the contents of the NAT32 routing table. If an argument is specified, addresses are resolved to DNS names, otherwise addresses are displayed in dotted decimal notation. The following information is displayed:

destination	destination host or network address of a packet
mask	subnet mask for the destination address
nexthop	address of the next hop for a packet
source	the source address or subnet of packets permitted to use this route
metric	routing metric (0 = direct delivery, 1 - 15 = indirect delivery)
ifn	interface over which the packet will be delivered
ttl	time-to-live in milliseconds for this entry
usage	the number of packets which have used this entry
proto	entry is used only for packets of this protocol type
portl	lowest destination protocol port number for this entry
porth	highest destination protocol port number for this entry

Unlike Windows, NAT32 fully supports multiple default routes, applying an Interface Selection Algorithm (see setis) in order to select an interface for outgoing TCP connections. When multiple Internet connections exist, Source Routing can be specified to ensure that only traffic from a specific host or network uses a specified connection (see setsr). If a protocol is specified, the entry is used only for packets of that protocol type. If a port range is specified, the entry is used only for packets matching both the specified protocol type and destination port number range.
