Description
The route is considered active, it might be inactive if the
interface for this route is not yet up.
The route is persistent, which means it is a configured route,
otherwise it corresponds to an interface route.
The route is a host route, typically the netmask is set to
255.255.255.255.
The route is a network route, consisting of an address and
netmask which forms the subnet to be addressed.
The route is a default route, address and netmask are set
to 0.0.0.0, thus matching any packet.
