Display Routing Table
Indicator Description
Type The type of routing. This can be either:
LAN or WAN interface (INTF)
Static routing
Destination LAN IP
Address
Either an entire network or a specific IP address. An IP address ending in .0 refers to a
network.
Subnet Mask Must follow the subnet mask rules
Gateway IP Address To communicate with an IP address matching the destination IP Address, the Wireless
Broadband Router sends all traffic through the gateway IP address listed here.
Hop Count The number of routers the packet has passed through to its destination. Hop count is used to
measure the distance between a source and a destination. If there are 3 routers between the
source and the destination nodes, the hop count for the packet will be 3 when it arrives at its
destination node.
The figure below shows three network routes that your router currently possesses. 192.168.2.0 is the destination network
connected to one of your router's interface port (LAN or WAN) and the IP address and Subnet Mask for this interface is
192.168.2.1 and 255.255.255.0, respectively. The number of routers (Hop Count) the packet passed through is 1. Also in the
same example, the destination with 0.0.0.0 network and 0.0.0.0 Subnet Mask is the default route for your router, where every
packet that left unmapped to any other route will be mapped to this route. The outgoing default gateway IP address is
192.168.1.254.
