Routing Tables Affected by Routing Policies
Table 1 lists the routing tables affected by default and user-defined routing policies and the types of routes that each routing table stores.
Table 1: Routing Tables Affected by Routing Policies
Routing Table | Type of Routes Stored |
|---|---|
inet.0 | Unicast IPv4 routes |
.inet.0 instance-name | Unicast IPv4 routes for a particular routing instance |
inet.1 | Multicast IPv4 routes |
inet.2 | Unicast IPv4 routes for multicast reverse-path forwarding (RPF) lookup |
inet.3 | MPLS routes |
mpls.0 | MPLS routes for label-switched path (LSP) next hops |
inet6.0 | Unicast IP version 6 (IPv6) routes |
![]() | Note: The discussion in the rest of this chapter assumes that the routing table is inet.0 unless explicitly stated otherwise. |
