Deleting a dynamically-learned route

About this task

Use the Routes tab to view and manage the contents of the system routing table. You can also delete a dynamically learned route using this table. Exercise caution if you delete entries from the route table.

To delete a static route, use the StaticRoute tab.

To delete dynamic routes from the table for a VRF instance, first select the appropriate instance.

Procedure

  1. In the navigation tree, expand the following folders: Configuration > IP.
  2. Click IP.
  3. Click the Routes tab.
  4. To delete a route, select the route and click Delete.

Routes field descriptions

Use the data in the following table to use the Routes tab.

Name

Description

Dest

Specifies the destination IP network of this route. An entry with a value of 0.0.0.0 is a default route. Multiple routes to a single destination can appear in the table, but access to multiple entries depends on the table access mechanisms defined by the network management protocol in use.

Mask

Indicates the network mask to logically add with the destination address before comparison to the destination IP network.

NextHop

Specifies the IP address of the next hop of this route.

AltSequence

Indicates the alternative route sequence. The value of 0 denotes the best route.

NextHopId

Specifies the identifier of the next-hop, hostname or MAC address.

HopOrMetric

Specifies the primary routing metric for this route. The semantics of this metric are specific to various routing protocols.

Interface

Specifies the router interface for this route.

  • Virtual router interfaces are identified by the VLAN number of the VLAN followed by the (VLAN) designation.

  • Brouter interfaces are identified by the slot and port number of the brouter port.

Proto

Specifies the routing mechanism through which this route was learned:

  • local—nonprotocol information, for example, manually configured entries

  • static

  • isis

  • inter-vrf redistributed route

Age

Specifies the number of seconds since this route was last updated or otherwise determined correct.

PathType

Indicates the route type, which is a combination of direct, indirect, best, alternative, and ECMP paths.

  • iA indicates Indirect Alternative route without an ECMP path

  • iAE indicates Indirect Alternative ECMP path

  • iB indicates Indirect Best route without ECMP path

  • iBE indicates Indirect Best ECMP path

  • dB indicates Direct Best route

  • iAN indicates Indirect Alternative route not in hardware

  • iAEN indicates Indirect Alternative ECMP route not in hardware

  • iBN indicates Indirect Best route not in hardware

  • iBEN indicates Indirect Best ECMP route not in hardware

  • dBN indicates Direct Best route not in hardware

  • iAU indicates Indirect Alternative Route Unresolved

  • iAEU indicates Indirect Alternative ECMP Unresolved

  • iBU indicates Indirect Best Route Unresolved

  • iBEU indicates Indirect Best ECMP Unresolved

  • dBU indicates Direct Best Route Unresolved

  • iBF indicates Indirect Best route replaced by FTN

  • iBEF indicates Indirect Best ECMP route replaced by FTN

  • iBV indicates Indirect best IPVPN route

  • iBEV indicates Indirect best ECMP IP VPN route

  • iBVN indicates Indirect best IP VPN route not in hardware

  • iBEVN indicates Indirect best ECMP IP VPN route not in hardware

Pref

Specifies the preference.

NextHopVrfId

Specifies the VRF ID of the next-hop address.
