226 This command is used to list a route from the FWT table. The only 238 This command is equivalent to fwt_list.
227 parameter is the route ID. If you want to list all the routes in a
228 table, start with rid=0, and keep incrementing rid until you get a
229 "(null)" string. This function is similar to fwt_list. The only
230 difference is the output format. Also note that this command is meant
231 for debugging. It is expected that users will use fwt_lookup and
232 fwt_list. One important reason for this is that the route id may change
233 as the route table is altered.
