 Hello
 I would like to know if exists a sysctl to get the number of
 routing tables in the kernel.
 I don't want the list of the routing tables, I just want the number.
 The command 'netstat -rn|wc -l' could be a good candidate,
 but since I want to implement this command on a very busy router,
 I don't want it to go 100% CPU just to get a simple count.
 If it doesn't exist I will create something based on netstat's source.
 Thanks a million (routes)

I don't think there's a count maintained.  [And as a developer of
large commercial routers, I haven't had a customer ask for a feature
like that, although I do have them for debugging purposes.]

If you're worried about the processing load of the brute force
solution, just lower the scheduling priority.
