Which command reveals the current configuration of IP routing on a Cisco device?

The command "show ip route" is used to display the current routing table on a Cisco device, which includes all the routes known to the device, the metrics for those routes, and the administrative distances associated with each route. This command provides critical information about how packets will be forwarded through the network, including the destination networks and the next-hop addresses, as well as the interfaces through which those packets will travel. By running this command, network administrators can gather insights on the operational state of the routing protocols in use, the specific routes installed, and the preferred paths for outgoing traffic based on the routing decisions made by the device.

The other options do not reflect valid commands within Cisco's IOS (Internetwork Operating System) for querying routing information. "show ip config" does not exist in Cisco IOS syntax, while "display routing -configuration" and "view ip routing status" are not recognized commands for obtaining routing table information. Understanding the functionality of the "show ip route" command is essential for effective troubleshooting and network management.
