A routing table holds a list of paths through which hosts can communicate with each other.
You may find that the number of entries in your Routing Table is such that it becomes unmanageable. If this is the case, you can reduce the list by entering a network address or network address mask and using the Refresh command (F6) to rebuild the list.
