Making Sense of Windows Routing Tables: Date - Dec 08, 2005; Author - Brien M. Posey; Section - Articles & Tutorials / Network Troubleshooting; It’s amazing the way that time can go by.

When routing packets across a network, things do occasionally go wrong. In these situations, it is helpful to be familiar with the Windows routing tables. Routing tables dictate the flow of packets from the machine in question. In this article, I will show you how to view the Windows routing tables and how to make sense of the data that is contained within it.
