show ip route summary

This command displays a summary of the state of the routing table. When the optional all keyword is given, some statistics, such as the number of routes from each source, include counts for alternate routes. An alternate route is a route that is not the most preferred route to its destination and therefore is not installed in the forwarding table. To include only the number of best routes, do not use the optional keyword.

Format	show ip route summary [all]
Modes	Privileged EXEC User EXEC

Term

Definition

Connected Routes	The total number of connected routes in the routing table.
Static Routes	Total number of static routes in the routing table.
RIP Routes	Total number of routes installed by RIP (Routing Information Protocol) protocol.
BGP Routes	Total number of routes installed by the BGP protocol.
External	The number of external BGP routes.
Internal	The number of internal BGP routes.
Local	The number of local BGP routes.
OSPF Routes	Total number of routes installed by OSPF protocol.
Intra Area Routes	Total number of Intra Area routes installed by OSPF protocol.
Inter Area Routes	Total number of Inter Area routes installed by OSPF protocol.
External Type-1 Routes	Total number of External Type-1 routes installed by OSPF protocol.
External Type-2 Routes	Total number of External Type-2 routes installed by OSPF protocol.
Reject Routes	Total number of reject routes installed by all protocols.
Net Prototype Routes	The number of net-prototype routes.
Total Routes	Total number of routes in the routing table.
Best Routes (High)	The number of best routes currently in the routing table. This number only counts the best route to each destination. The value in parentheses indicates the highest count of unique best routes since counters were last cleared.
Alternate Routes	The number of alternate routes currently in the routing table. An alternate route is a route that was not selected as the best route to its destination.
Route Adds	The number of routes that have been added to the routing table.
Route Modifies	The number of routes that have been changed after they were initially added to the routing table.
Route Deletes	The number of routes that have been deleted from the routing table.
Unresolved Route Adds	The number of route adds that failed because none of the route‘s next hops were on a local subnet. Note that static routes can fail to be added to the routing table at startup because the routing interfaces are not yet up. This counter gets incremented in this case. The static routes are added to the routing table when the routing interfaces come up.
Invalid Route Adds	The number of routes that failed to be added to the routing table because the route was invalid. A log message is written for each of these failures.
Failed Route Adds	The number of routes that failed to be added to the routing table because of a resource limitation in the routing table.
Hardware Failed Route Adds	The number of routes failed be inserted into the hardware due to hash error or a table full condition.
Reserved Locals	The number of routing table entries reserved for a local subnet on a routing interface that is down. Space for local routes is always reserved so that local routes can be installed when a routing interface bounces.
Unique Next Hops (High)	The number of distinct next hops used among all routes currently in the routing table. These include local interfaces for local routes and neighbors for indirect routes. The value in parentheses indicates the highest count of unique next hops since counters were last cleared.
Next Hop Groups (High)	The current number of next hop groups in use by one or more routes. Each next hop group includes one or more next hops. The value in parentheses indicates the highest count of next hop groups since counters were last cleared.
ECMP Groups (High)	The number of next hop groups with multiple next hops. The value in parentheses indicates the highest count of next hop groups since counters were last cleared.
ECMP Groups	The number of next hop groups with multiple next hops.
ECMP Routes	The number of routes with multiple next hops currently in the routing table.
Truncated ECMP Routes	The number of ECMP (Equal Cost Multi Paths) routes that are currently installed in the forwarding table with just one next hop. The forwarding table may limit the number of ECMP routes or the number of ECMP groups. When an ECMP route cannot be installed because such a limit is reached, the route is installed with a single next hop.
ECMP Retries	The number of ECMP routes that have been installed in the forwarding table after initially being installed with a single next hop.
Routes with n Next Hops	The current number of routes with each number of next hops.
