How to view the routing table in Linux?

sobes.tech AI

Answer from AI

In Linux, several commands can be used to view the routing table:

  • route -n — displays the routing table in numeric format (without attempting to resolve names).
  • ip route show — a modern command from the iproute2 package, shows the current routes.

Example:

route -n

or

ip route show

Both commands will display a list of routes, including network addresses, gateways, interfaces, and metrics.
