Did you mean "route -C" ?

I like the idea and price point of the ImageStream products, but knowing 
how bad Linux is at being a router and that their products are 
Linux-based, I'm afraid to give one a try. J products are based on a 
competing non-Linux platform that has a better reputation for routing.
