How to Show IP Routing Table on Cisco Router

Cisco routers run on their own IOS (Internetwork operating system) operating system. When configuring these routers, it’s important to have knowledge of the CLI (command line interface) to users, which includes a number of commands, depending on your router model and the user privilege level. These commands let the user perform different operations necessary for the configuration of the router and to make it secure from several vulnerabilities.

Besides, due to the proficiency of Cisco IOS, it has been copied by the other router’s manufacturers. If you want to test the routing table on your router, the process is quite easy and straightforward; still, you can acquire the support of professionals by calling at the Cisco customer support number to complete the process in a hassle-free manner. Here’s how to check: 

Setting Up Your Computer 

• First of all, connect your PC using the COM port to the router’s console port via the serial cable. 
• Open the HyperTerminal tool. If you have Windows Vista or 7, you can’t access it directly, and you need to download the tool manually. 
• Change your HyperTerminal configuration to the correct COM port, and set the connection speed up to 9600 baud.

Connecting to Cisco Router

• Start your Cisco router if it’s not yet turned on. If it prompts you to complete the initial settings, then click the ‘No’ button. 
• In the prompt window, input the word, which can be either router name or the model of the router. Also, you need to enter the password in the enable mode. Enter the password if it’s necessary. The CLI will change the router settings and set it to the enable mode. 
• Enter the ‘show IP route’ text in the command line window. It will now display the IP routing table.

However, if you are not familiar with the router functionality and don’t know how to use the Cisco router to show IP routing table, then you can call at the Cisco router tech support phone number to get the guidance of technical specialists. Additionally, you can also verify the Cisco IP routing table to troubleshoot the related problems. Whatever problems you have with your router, just call on the same number for identifying and remediation problems.
