Let’s Play With Routing Tables
In-depth Knowledge Of Routing, Networking, DNS
In the world of the Internet, anyone can send packets to anyone. But, do you know how actually packet goes from our laptop to the internet? Routing table is a concept through this we can send our packets to anyone according to our requirements.
A Router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer network. This device is usually connected to two or more different networks. When a data packet comes to a router port, the router reads the address information in the packet to determine out which port the packet will be sent. Routers use Routing Tables to determine out which interface the packet will be sent. A routing table lists all networks for which routes are known. Each router’s routing table is unique and stored in the RAM of the device.
To check your routing table-use command:
- For Linux:
route -n
2. For Windows: route print
