ROUTE(8)                FreeBSD System Manager's Manual               ROUTE(8) NAME      route -- manually manipulate the routing tables SYNOPSIS      route [-dnqtv] command [[modifiers] args] DESCRIPTION      The route utility is used to manually manipulate the network routing      tables.  It normally is not needed, as a system routing table management      daemon, such as routed(8), should tend to this task.      The route utility supports a limited number of general options, but a      rich command language, enabling the user to specify any arbitrary request      that could be delivered via the programmatic interface discussed in      route(4).
