A network administrator notices that traffic intended for a specific subnet is not being routed through the expected path in a production network. After verifying the physical connectivity and interface status, the administrator decides to examine the routing table of the router. Which command should the administrator use to view the current routing table and verify the routes?
The 'show route' command is specifically designed to display the routing table on a router. This command provides detailed information about all routes known to the router, including destination networks, next-hop addresses, and metrics, which is useful for troubleshooting routing issues. The other options, while useful for other diagnostic scenarios, do not provide the routing table information that the administrator needs in this situation.
