11.1 Routing Table

This page displays the device core routing table which lists
destination IP, subnet mask, gateway, hop count and interface.
The principal task for a router is to look for an optimal transfer
path for each data packet passing through it, and transfer it to the
specified destination. So, it's essential for the router to select an
optimal path, i.e. routing algorithm. To complete this work, the
router stores related data of various transfer paths, i.e.
establishing a routing table, for future route selection.
