Using route command

Use the route command to test network routing without permanently storing the routing tables in the Ethernet TAP probe flash EPROM. Without options, the route command displays the current route table. See Entering static routes topic.

To add route to route table

Connect to the internal setup utility of Ethernet TAP probe, for more information, see Connecting to Ethernet TAP probe setup utility topic.
At the core> prompt, enter the destination command by using this syntax:
```
route add 
destination
gateway
```
where destination is the IP address of the host or host network, and gateway is the IP address of the first gateway the Ethernet TAP probe crosses when communicating with the destination host.

To remove route from route table

Connect to the internal setup utility of Ethernet TAP probe, for more information, see Connecting to Ethernet TAP probe setup utility topic.
At the core> prompt, enter the destination command by using this syntax:
```
route delete 
destination
gateway
```

Routes are also cleared from the route table after the Ethernet TAP probe is reset.
