State
Route state description:
ActiveU Valid unicast route. U stands for
unicast.
Blackhole Blackhole route is similar to Reject
route, but it will not send the ICMP
unreachable message to the source end
Delete The route is deleted
Gateway Indicates that the route is not directly
reachable
Hidden The route exists, but it is unavailable
temporarily for some reasons (e.g.,
configured policy or interface is Down).
Moreover, you do not wish to delete it.
Therefore, you need to hide it, so as to
restore it again later
Holddown Holddown is one kind of route
redistribution policy adopted by some
distance-vector (D-V) routing protocols
(e.g., RIP), through which these routing
protocols can avoid the flooding of
error routes and deliver the routing
unreachable message accurately. For
example, the RIP imports a certain
route every a period of time regardless
of whether the actually found routes
destined for the same destination
change. For more details, refer to the
specific routing protocols.
Int The route is discovered by interior
gateway protocol (IGP).
NoAdvise The routing protocol does not import
NoAdvise route when it imports routes
based on the policy.
NotInstall The routing protocol generally selects
the route with the highest precedence
from its routing table, then places it in
its core routing table and imports it.
Although the NotInstall route cannot
be placed in the core routing table, it is
possibly that it is selected and
imported.
Reject Unlike the normal routes, the Reject
route will discard the packets that
select it as their route, and the router
will send ICMP unreachable message to
the source end. Reject route is usually
used for the network test
Retain When the routes from the core routing
table are deleted, the routes with the
Retain flag will not be deleted. Using
this function you can set the Retain flag
for some static routes, so that they can
exist in the core routing table.
Static The route with Static flag will not be
cleared from the routing table after you
save it and reboot the router.
Generally, the static route configured
manually in the router belongs to a
Static route.
