Apparently, Linux tool "route" performs very similar role with the "ip route" command. They both can show and manipulate a routing table of Linux. So, what is difference?
Simple answer is; "ip" command replaces the old "route" command. "ip" is a command line tool in "iproute2" suite which substitutes "net-tools" package. "iproute2" suit integrates more functionality and a single interface through "ip" command.
Thus, if you can do something with route command, you can do exactly same thing with ip command.
