In /usr/sbin. However, it has to be executed by root, due to security
precautions:
gomeisa[61]:~% /usr/sbin/route -n
route: socket: Permission denied

FreeBSD (and also Solaris) do not know print, this seems to be a Linuxism.
They only have add, flush, delete, change, get, and monitor.
taygeta[136]:~/PROJ/dlv.ben% route -n get 209.167.40.140
route to: 209.167.40.140
destination: default
mask: default
gateway: 128.130.111.1
interface: fxp0
flags: <UP,GATEWAY,DONE,STATIC,PRCLONING>

Yes, of course.
(The problem usually is not that other Unix systems lack features or
common tools, rather it has been my experience that Linux often added
non-standard features.)
