I think that's probably right. I had never used the 'ip route'

iproute2 has supplanted the venerable net-tools (or whatever it's
called); ifconfig, route, netstat, etc.
I sort of put pressure on my self to start using them 20 years ago, and
largely failed. It wasn't until about 5-10 years ago when I started
doing things with ip that couldn't be done with other older commands
that I started succeeding in migrating over to iproute2 for 90% of what
I do.
Admittedly, I still periodically find myself using ifconfig for quick
status. All things I can get from ip, but not as readily handy.
Ironically, I've found myself doing / planning to do things within the
last six months that iproute2 can't / won't do; DECnet, IPX, and AX.25/ROSE.
Yes, that's correct. [I just tested it]
Also correct.
Thank you for confirming.
P.S. I tip my hat at your name. ;-)
