Hi,
My understanding of the routing table updation by the routing command is like this. Any user requests to add or delete a route is stored in the rt_msghdr structure & written to the routing socket. The route_output() of the kernel does the  updation by calling appropriate functions. It also sends the same message to all processes that have open a routing socket for listening.

Is my understanding correct? Kindly mail me if anything that i have said is incorrect.

regards
ravi prasad
