ROUTES
The ROUTES command will display the list of neighbor nodes. In order for a new
neighbor to be contained in the nodes and routes tables, MINQUAL must be equal to or
less than QUALITY. The routes table shows the port number, the neighbor callsign,
quality value, the number of destination nodes in the nodes table that use this neighbor
as a route, if the route is in use, and if the route is locked. For example:
R <CR>
KARL:WK5M-1}Routes:
>1 KA5ZTX-1 110 1
1 WD0EMR-1 63 7
>1 KA0DNV-1 85 15
1 WA0CPS-1 110 12 !
1 W4NGA-1 0 0 !
This Routes listing shows that the KARL:WK5M-1 node can reach neighbor node
(KA5ZTX-1) on port 1 with a quality of 110. There is only one destination node (itself -
KA5ZTX-1) in Karl's nodes table that can be reached using this neighbor. A right arrow
(>) indicates that this route is either in use or has been used within the L4LIMIT time
period.
WD0EMR-1 is also a neighbor node for WK5M-1. This node has a port 1 quality of 63.
Using the WD0EMR-1 node as a route, Karl's node can reach seven of the destination
nodes listed in its nodes table (WD0EMR-1 plus 6 others),
The KA0DNV-1 node has a path that is available to WK5M-1 on port 1 of the K-Net
node. The path quality is 85 with 15 destination nodes in Karl's nodes table able to be
reached using this neighbor as a route (KA0DNV-1 plus 14 others).
The next neighbor node is WA0CPS-1. It is reachable on port 1 with a quality of 110.
There are 12 destination nodes in Karl's nodes table that can be reached using this
neighbor as a route (WA0CPS-1 and 11 others). The exclamation point (!) indicates that
the route as well as the route quality (110) has been "locked in" by the sysop of the
WK5M-1 node.
The last neighbor node listed is W4NGA-1. Since the quality has been set and locked to
zero, there are no destination nodes (including W4NGA-1) listed in Karl's nodes table
that can be reached using this neighbor as a route. This node will not be listed in Karl's
nodes table, and all node broadcasts sourced from this node will be ignored.
