ReactOS TCP/IPv4 Win32 route

Route.exe manipulates network routing tables


Command Line Help

ReactOS

route usage: route print

 prints the route table

route add <target> [mask <mask>] <gw> [metric <m>]

 adds a route

route delete <target> <gw>

 deletes a route


Windows 7

Manipulates network routing tables.

ROUTE [-f] [-p] [-4|-6] command [destination]

                 [MASK netmask]  [gateway] [METRIC metric]  [IF interface]
 -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. Ignored for all other commands,
              which always affect the appropriate persistent routes. This
              option is not supported in Windows 95.
 -4           Force using IPv4.
 -6           Force using IPv6.
 command      One of these:
                PRINT     Prints  a route
                ADD       Adds    a route
                DELETE    Deletes a route
                CHANGE    Modifies an existing route
 destination  Specifies the host.
 MASK         Specifies that the next parameter is the 'netmask' value.
 netmask      Specifies a subnet mask value for this route entry.
              If not specified, it defaults to 255.255.255.255.
 gateway      Specifies gateway.
 interface    the interface number for the specified route.
 METRIC       specifies the metric, ie. cost for the destination.

All symbolic names used for destination are looked up in the network database file NETWORKS. The symbolic names for gateway are looked up in the host name database file HOSTS.

If the command is PRINT or DELETE. Destination or gateway can be a wildcard, (wildcard is specified as a star '*'), or the gateway argument may be omitted.

If Dest contains a * or ?, it is treated as a shell pattern, and only matching destination routes are printed. The '*' matches any string, and '?' matches any one char. Examples: 157.*.1, 157.*, 127.*, *224*.

Pattern match is only allowed in PRINT command. Diagnostic Notes:

   Invalid MASK generates an error, that is when (DEST & MASK) != DEST.
   Example> route ADD 157.0.0.0 MASK 155.0.0.0 157.55.80.1 IF 1
            The route addition failed: The specified mask parameter is invalid.
(Destination & Mask) != Destination.

Examples:

   > route PRINT
   > route PRINT -4
   > route PRINT -6
   > route PRINT 157*          .... Only prints those matching 157*
   > route ADD 157.0.0.0 MASK 255.0.0.0  157.55.80.1 METRIC 3 IF 2
            destination^      ^mask      ^gateway     metric^    ^
                                                        Interface^
     If IF is not given, it tries to find the best interface for a given
     gateway.
   > route ADD 3ffe::/32 3ffe::1
   > route CHANGE 157.0.0.0 MASK 255.0.0.0 157.55.80.5 METRIC 2 IF 2
     CHANGE is used to modify gateway and/or metric only.
   > route DELETE 157.0.0.0
   > route DELETE 3ffe::/32
