Values

Enum Value Description

UNSPEC

The routing mechanism is unknown or was not specified.

INTERFACE

A local interface.

STATIC

Manually added static route or a route added through DHCP or SNMP.

ICMP

The result of an ICMP redirect.

DYNAMIC

Added from a dynamic routing protocol but protocol was unspecified.

EGP

The Exterior Gateway Protocol (EGP), a dynamic routing protocol.

GGP

The Gateway-to-Gateway Protocol (GGP), a dynamic routing protocol.

HELLO

You should never see this in the field. The Hellospeak protocol, a dynamic routing protocol is a historical entry no longer in use and was an early routing protocol used by the original ARPANET routers that ran special software called the Fuzzball routing protocol, sometimes called Hellospeak, as described in RFC 891 and RFC 1305. For more information, see RFC 891 and RFC 1305 — NTP v3

RIP

The Berkeley Routing Information Protocol (RIP) or RIP-II, a dynamic routing protocol.

ISIS

The Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (IS-IS) protocol, a dynamic routing protocol. The IS-IS protocol was developed for use in the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) protocol suite.

ESIS

The End System-to-Intermediate System (ES-IS) protocol, a dynamic routing protocol. The ES-IS protocol was developed for use in the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) protocol suite.

CISCO

The Cisco Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP), a dynamic routing protocol.

BBN

You should never see this in the field. The Bolt, Beranek, and Newman (BBN) Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) that used the Shortest Path First (SPF) algorithm. This was an early dynamic routing protocol.

OSPF

The Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol, a dynamic routing protocol.

BGP

The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), a dynamic routing protocol.

BLACK_HOLE

Just discard packets.

REDIRECT

The route is added by a protocol redirect.

KERNEL

The route is added by the operating system kernel.

BOOT

The route is added during system boot.

GATED

The route is added by the Gated routing daemon.

RA

The route is added by Router Advertisement (RA).

MRT

The route is added via the Multicast Routing Table protocol.

ZEBRA

The route is managed by Zebra routing software.

BIRD

The route is managed by the BIRD routing daemon.

DNROUTED

The route is managed by the dn routed daemon.

XORP

The route is managed by the XORP routing platform.

NTK

The route is managed via NTK protocol.

DHCP

The route is added by DHCP.

KEEPALIVED

The route is managed by Keepalived software.

BABEL

The route is learned via the Babel protocol.

OPENR

The route is managed by the OpenR protocol.

EIGRP

The route is managed by the EIGRP protocol.

Used by

  • Route type: One entry in an Endpoint's IP routing table, collected from Windows, macOS, and Linux endpoints as part of the periodic network inventory.
