Normal users can display the contents of the route table. Root privileges are required to configure IP routes.
The route table holds up to 50 entries.
See the set forwarding command for information on configuring a device/terminal server to use dynamic IP routes maintained by RIP.
Enter the set route command as shown below to manually configure IP routes:
set route {gateway=ip_addr|wanname=name}
mask=mask metric=hops
net=net_addr range=range
[rmroute={on|off}]
Enter the set route command as shown below to display the route table:

|
mask |
Specifies the subnet mask used by the destination network. |
|
metric |
Specifies the number of routers through which a datagram may pass before reaching the destination network defined in the net field. This value may be revised by forwarding routers, depending on the requirements of the routers and network conditions. |

In this example, the set route command displays the entire route table.
set route
In this example, the set route command displays a range of entries in the route table.
set route range=3-5
In this example, the set route command removes an entry from the route table.
set route rmroute=on range=2
In this example, the set route command configures a route that uses a WAN connection through a serial port.
set route net=199.150.144.8 mask=255.255.255.0 metric=3
wanname=user999
