With IPHost Network Monitor you can run WMI Type monitoring of various devices in your network.
To create a WMI monitor for Type, provide host name (it must be a Windows host) and specify custom WQL query:
The Type property reveals the type of route. The values direct(3) and indirect(4) refer to the notion of direct and indirect routing in the IP architecture. Setting this object to the value invalid(2) has the effect of invalidating the corresponding entry in the RouteTable object. That is, it effectively disassociates the destination identified with said entry from the route identified with said entry. It is an implementation-specific matter as to whether the agent removes an invalidated entry from the table. Accordingly, management stations must be prepared to receive tabular information from agents that corresponds to entries not currently in use. Proper interpretation of such entries requires examination of the relevant ipRouteType object.
The IP4RouteTable class information governs where network data packets are routed to (e.g. usually internet packets are sent to a gateway, and local packets may be routed directly by the client's machine). Administrators can use this information to trace problems associated with misrouted packets, and also direct a computer to a new gateway as necessary. This class deals specifically with IP4 and does not address IPX or IP6. It is only intended to model the information revealed when typing the 'Route Print' command from the command prompt. Please Note: though updating instances of this class is supported, supplying property values which are invalid or unrecognized by the network protocol stack will not update successfully and the original values will persist. An error is not guaranteed to be generated when this happens, but if one does, nothing is updated.
