The IP address of packets that will take this route.
Netmask
One bits in the mask specify which bits of the IP address must match.

the IP address matched is directly connected to the router on the interface specified: LAN or WAN.
Metric
The route metric is a value from 1 to 16 that indicates the cost of using this route. A value of 1 is the lowest
cost, and 15 is the highest cost. A value of 16 indicates that the route is not reachable from this router. When
trying to reach a particular destination, computers on your network will select the best route, ignoring
unreachable routes.
