bit that corresponds to a “1” is part of the subnet mask 
number; each bit that corresponds to “0” is part of the host 
number.
Gateway The IP address of the router at the next hop to which frames 
are forwarded.
Interface The local interface through which the next hop of this route is 
reached.
Metric When a router receives a routing update that contains a new or 
changed destination network entry, the router adds 1 to the 
metric value indicated in the update and enters the network in 
the routing table.
