Description

Create a routing table.

Explicitly creating a routing table with routing-table-name is optional if you are not adding any static, martian, aggregate, or generated routes to the routing table and if you also are creating a routing table group.

Default

If you do not specify a routing table name with the routing-table-name option, the software uses the default routing tables, which are inet.0 for unicast routes and inet.1 for the multicast cache.

Options

routing-table-name—Name of the routing table, in the following format:

protocol [.identifier].

In a routing instance, the routing table name must include the routing instance name. For example, if the routing instance name is link0, the routing table name might be link0.inet6.0.

• protocol is the protocol family. It can be inet6 for the IPv6 family, inet for the IPv4 family, iso for the ISO protocol family, or instance-name.iso.0 for an ISO routing instance.

• identifier is a positive integer that specifies the instance of the routing table.

The remaining statements are explained separately. See CLI Explorer.
