Route
Route is a kernel utility that allows the user to view and edit the rules that govern how packets destined for various subnets are
routed. These rules tell the device which gateways on a given interface's subnet may be used to route packets to hosts on other
subnets.
Route contains three tab windows: Input, Output, and About. Enter and execute a command on the Input tab and review the
results on the Output tab.
