Bill,
by issuing route on the command line in Win2K you get the equivalent of 
a help page :

C:\WINNT\system32>route

Manipulates network routing tables.

ROUTE [-f] [-p] [command [destination]
                   [MASK netmask]  [gateway] [METRIC metric]  [IF interface]

   -f           Clears the routing tables of all gateway entries.  If 
this is
                used in conjunction with one of the commands, the tables are
                cleared prior to running the command.
   -p           When used with the ADD command, makes a route persistent 
across
                boots of the system. By default, routes are not preserved
                when the system is restarted. Ignored for all other 
commands,
                which always affect the appropriate persistent routes. This
                option is not supported in Windows 95.
   command      One of these:
                  PRINT     Prints  a route
                  ADD       Adds    a route
                  DELETE    Deletes a route
                  CHANGE    Modifies an existing route
   destination  Specifies the host.
   MASK         Specifies that the next parameter is the 'netmask' value.
   netmask      Specifies a subnet mask value for this route entry.
                If not specified, it defaults to 255.255.255.255.
   gateway      Specifies gateway.
   interface    the interface number for the specified route.
   METRIC       specifies the metric, ie. cost for the destination.

All symbolic names used for destination are looked up in the network 
database
file NETWORKS. The symbolic names for gateway are looked up in the host name
database file HOSTS.

If the command is PRINT or DELETE. Destination or gateway can be a wildcard,
(wildcard is specified as a star '*'), or the gateway argument may be 
omitted.

If Dest contains a * or ?, it is treated as a shell pattern, and only
matching destination routes are printed. The '*' matches any string,
and '?' matches any one char. Examples: 157.*.1, 157.*, 127.*, *224*.
Diagnostic Notes:
     Invalid MASK generates an error, that is when (DEST & MASK) != DEST.
     Example> route ADD 157.0.0.0 MASK 155.0.0.0 157.55.80.1 IF 1
              The route addition failed: The specified mask parameter is 
invalid.
  (Destination & Mask) != Destination.

Examples:

     > route PRINT
     > route ADD 157.0.0.0 MASK 255.0.0.0  157.55.80.1 METRIC 3 IF 2
              destination^      ^mask      ^gateway     metric^    ^
                                                          Interface^
   interface    the interface number for the specified route.
   METRIC       specifies the metric, ie. cost for the destination.

All symbolic names used for destination are looked up in the network 
database
file NETWORKS. The symbolic names for gateway are looked up in the host name
database file HOSTS.

              The route addition failed: The specified mask parameter is 
invalid.
  (Destination & Mask) != Destination.

Examples:

     > route PRINT
     > route ADD 157.0.0.0 MASK 255.0.0.0  157.55.80.1 METRIC 3 IF 2
              destination^      ^mask      ^gateway     metric^    ^
                                                          Interface^
