The show routes command displays the current IPv4 and IPv6 routing information on the NIOS appliance and organizes the information according to the interface. This command is a valuable diagnostic tool for connectivity issues.

If you had selected the Enable default route redundancy on LAN1/LAN2 checkbox, then output of this command displays two default routes each having a different metric number. For more information about the checkbox, see About Route Redundancy.

Syntax

show routes

This command has no arguments.

Example

In the following example, default specifies the direct connection to the interface and the static routes are represented (in this example) in bold. You specify static routes by manually entering them through the GUI.

The following example shows the output when the Enable default route redundancy on LAN1/LAN2 checkbox is selected. It displays two default routes each having a different metric number. For IPv4 networks, the primary default route has a metric value of 0 and the secondary default route has a metric value of 10. For IPv6 networks, the primary default route has a metric value of 1024 and the secondary default route has a metric value of 1124.
