State — Displays the default gateway status. The possible field values are:

Incomplete — Indicates that address resolution is in progress and the link-layer address of the default gateway has not yet been determined.

Reachable — Indicates that the default gateway is known to have been reachable recently (within tens of seconds ago).

Stale — Indicates that the default gateway is no longer known to be reachable but until traffic is sent to the default gateway, no attempt is made to verify its reachability.

Delay — Indicates that the default gateway is no longer known to be reachable, and traffic has recently been sent to the default gateway. Rather than probe the default gateway immediately, however, there is a delay sending probes for a short while in order to give upper-layer protocols a chance to provide reachability confirmation.

Probe — Indicates that the default gateway is no longer known to be reachable, and unicast Neighbor Solicitation probes are being sent to verify reachability.

Unreachable — Indicates that no reachability confirmation was received.

Remove — When selected, removes the address from the list.
