Differences between ipCidrRouteTable and ipRouteTable

[madhan raj]

 
Hi All,


        I am using Net-SNMP 5.3.0.1 in my router running in Linux platform. Everything is working fine. But if I browse ipRouteTable (RFC-1213) I am not getting the values of the following variables:
 
      ipRouteMetric2, ipRouteMetric3, ipRouteMetric 4 & 5.


        But I am able to get the values in ipCidrRouteTable(RFC-2096). The variables are as follows:

      ipCidrRouteMetric1, ipCidrRouteMetric2, ipCidrRouteMetric 3,4 & 5


      Can anyone tell me the differences between these two groups?
 
      According to RFC-2096 "ipCidrRouteTable updates the RFC 1213 ipRouteTable to display multipath IP Routes having the same network number but differing network masks". Is the values in the both ipRouteTable and ipCidrRouteTable are same?

      Kindly help me regarding this.


-Thanking You,
Madhan
