Manipulates network routing tables. This command is available only if the
TCP/IP protocol has been installed. route [-f] [-p] [command [destination] [mask
subnetmask] [gateway] [metric costmetric]] Parameters -f Clears the routing tables of all gateway entries. If this is used in
conjunction with one of the commands, the tables are cleared prior to running
the command. -p When used with the add command, makes a route persistent across boots
of the system. By default, routes are not preserved when the system is
restarted. When used with the print command, displays the list of
registered persistent routes. Ignored for all other commands, which always
affect the appropriate persistent routes. command Specifies one of the following commands.
destination Specifies the computer to send command. mask subnetmask Specifies a subnet mask to be associated with this route entry. If not
specified, 255.255.255.255 is used. gateway Specifies gateway. All symbolic names used for destination or gateway are
referenced in both the network database file called Networks, and the computer
name database file called Hosts. If the command is print or delete,
wildcards may be used for the destination and gateway, or the gateway argument
may be omitted. metric costmetric Assigns an integer cost metric (ranging from 1 to 9999) to be used in
calculating the fastest, most reliable, and/or least expensive routes. |
