title: Understanding Routing table entry
body: <p>I want to ask a question about route command in Linux. I have enter following command in Linux terminal </p>
  
  <pre><code>&gt; route
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and got the output:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
  192.168.1.0     *               255.255.255.0   U     1      0        0 eth0
  192.168.122.0   *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 virbr0
  link-local      *               255.255.0.0     U     1000   0        0 eth0
  default         192.168.1.1     0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I don't understand it. Does this mean that any packet with ip <code>192.168.1.0</code> will go out from <code>*</code> gateway?
  Why is it DESTINATION written there shouldn't it be source because the packet going out from my host have source IP of <code>192.168.1.0</code>?</p>
  
  <p>Can anyone explain me the meaning of this entry in terms of packet going out and coming to my host?</p>
