ProSafe Managed Switch
show ip route summary
Use this command to display the routing table summary. Use the optional all parameter to
show the number of all routes, including best and non-best routes. To include only the
number of best routes, do not use the optional parameter.
When the optional keyword all is given, some statistics, such as the number of routes from
each source, include counts for alternate routes. An alternate route is a route that is not the
most preferred route to its destination and therefore is not installed in the forwarding table.
When this keyword is not given, the output reports only for the best routes.

Unresolved
Route Adds
The number of route adds that failed because none of the route’s next hops were on a
local subnet. Note that static routes can fail to be added to the routing table at startup
because the routing interfaces are not up yet. This counter gets incremented in this case.
The static routes are added to the routing table when the routing interfaces come up.
Invalid Route
Adds
The number of routes that failed to be added to the routing table because the route was
invalid. A log message is written for each of these failures.
Failed Route
Adds
The number of routes that failed to be added to the routing table because of a resource
limitation in the routing table.
Reserved
Locals
The number of routing table entries reserved for a local subnet on a routing interface that
is down. Space for local routes is always reserved so that local routes can be installed
when a routing interface bounces.
