Figure 83. IP Routing Information window

The IP Routing Information window also has a link to the O/S forwarding table where the forwarding param- eters are displayed (“O/S forwarding table window” on page 203).

Destination (ipRouteDest)

The destination IP address of this route. An entry with a value of 0.0.0.0 is considered a default route. Multiple routes to a single destination can appear in the table, but access to such multiple entries is dependent on the table-access mechanisms defined by the network management protocol in use.

To view or modify next-hop routing information for each destination, click on a destination link in the Desti- nation column. For more information about modifying next-hop routing information settings, refer to “IP Routing Destination window” on page 205.

Mask (ipRouteMask)

Indicates the mask to be logical-ANDed with the destination address before being compared to the value in the ipRouteDest field. For those systems that do not support arbitrary subnet masks, an agent constructs the value of the ipRouteMask by determining whether the value of the corresponding ipRouteDest field belongs to a Class A, B, or C network, and then using the appropriate mask from table 3.
