Configuring Routing with route
route is a program for manipulating the IP routing table. You can use it to view your
routing configuration and add or remove of routes.
NOTE: route and ip
The program route is obsolete. Use ip instead.
route is especially useful if you need quick and comprehensible information about your
routing configuration to determine problems with routing. To view your current routing
configuration, enter route -n as root.
