System Log - Routing Table not show my real IP?

[bayern1975]

hello, why i can`t see in my routing table my real IP? i have a same gateway IP and destination IP in my routing....i think this is not good and maybe i have pppd disconnection every day problem therefore? how can i solve this problem?

Because the router does not need a route to its own IP, so there shouldn't be a route for that particular IP. Only that for the remote end, which shows up there as your default gateway.

i think i was seen real IP in routing table in your older firmware 378.56_2...is possible to change something to show my real IP address for destination? I think this is problem for my disconnection twice a day?

This is the router's routing table, not your client's routing table. It would make no sense for it to have a route pointing to itself, routes are meant for remote destinations. So, your real IP was never shown there, only your ISP's gateway.

i need some screenshots from other users. I would like to see what destination addresses others have in routing table....

None of my Destination addresses show the WAN IP, only the Remote Gateway IP.

Does this help? Note, this isn't AsusWRT, but a platform based on FreeBSD.

The default route is the GW...

Routing tables show the routes, not the local IP.

netstat -r

Routing tables

Internet:
Destination        Gateway            Flags      Netif Expire
default            ip68-7-8-1.sd.sd.c UGS        igb0
68.7.8.0/23        link#1             U          igb0
ip68-7-9-102.sd.sd link#1             UHS         lo0
localhost          link#7             UH          lo0
192.168.1.0        link#2             U          igb1
router             link#2             UHS         lo0

With linux - try the following... should work with most

ip route get 8.8.8.8 | awk '{print $NF; exit}'

Also ifconfig -a does a nice job as well..

It shows up there because he has an openvpn tunnel (tun21) established.....without the tunnel, you won't see it.
