Best Routes Table
The route table manager collects routes from multiple sources: static routes, RIP routes, and local routes. The
route table manager may learn multiple routes to the same destination from multiple sources. In that case,
the route table manager selects the route with the lowest route preference value to use for forwarding to that
destination. Use the Best Routes Table page to display the best routes from the routing table. To view all
routes, including multiple routes to the same destination, see
.
To display the page, click
LAN > L3 Features > Router > Best Routes Table
in the navigation tree.
