Hello,

Please try "show ip cache" command.

Hope this helps.

this command "show ip cache" is applicable only to routers whose Control plane and forwarding plane common?

Hello,

Not necessarily. I believe it is more significant in higher end routers.

Also, it is typically used with netflow. You can also use "show ip cef

detail" to find out the FIB entries.

Not sure i understand. If the route is in the routing table then it will be used for forward traffic. There are routes that are not installed in the routing table eg. routes in the EIGRP topology table that are not actually installed in the routing table, but all routes once they have been installed in the routing table are used for forwarding traffic.

Was there a specific example you were thinking of ?
