•
agedout(4)—Invalid route (soon to be removed).
•
costly(5)—A valid route, but not in use because of it’s higher cost.
Defined Routes
This portion of the IP Routing Information window is where you can add a new route to the IP Routing Over-
view window. Fill in the
Destination
(genRouteDest),
Mask
(genRouteMask), and
Gateway
(genRouteGate-
way) information, then click the
Define
button.
Destination (ipRouteDest)
The destination IP address of this route. An entry with a value of 0.0.0.0 is considered a default route. Multiple
routes to a single destination can appear in the table, but access to such multiple entries is dependent on the
table-access mechanisms defined by the network management protocol in use.
Note
To view or modify the next-hop routing parameters for a single desti-
nation address, choose an address you wish to view under the
Desti-
nation
column, then click the hyperlink
to display the
IP Route
Details
window (see
“IP Route Details window”
on page 193 for
details).
Mask (ipRouteMask)
Indicates the mask to be logical-ANDed with the destination address before being compared to the value in the
ipRouteDest field. For those systems that do not support arbitrary subnet masks, an agent constructs the value
of the ipRouteMask by determining whether the value of the correspondent ipRouteDest field belongs to a
Class A, B, or C network, and then using the appropriate mask from Table 4 on page 191.
Gateway (genRouteGateway)
Specifies the IP address to which the packets should be forwarded.
Advanced…
Enables a route to be attached to an interface. Packets to a network will be routed to that interface, allowing
the gateway IP address to be dynamic. Fill in the
Destination
(genRouteDest),
Mask
(genRouteMask), and
Interface
(genRouteIfIndex) information, then click the
Define
button.
Destination (ipRouteDest)
The destination IP address of this route. An entry with a value of 0.0.0.0 is considered a default route. Multiple
routes to a single destination can appear in the table, but access to such multiple entries is dependent on the
table-access mechanisms defined by the network management protocol in use.
Mask (ipRouteMask)
Indicates the mask to be logical-ANDed with the destination address before being compared to the value in the
ipRouteDest field. For those systems that do not support arbitrary subnet masks, an agent constructs the value
of the ipRouteMask by determining whether the value of the correspondent ipRouteDest field belongs to a
Class A, B, or C network, and then using the appropriate mask from Table 4 on page 191.
Interface (genRouteIfIndex)
Specifies the IP address to which the packets should be forwarded.
