Route Table
Route table
The Route Table, also referred to as the routing table, is responsible for providing routing instructions within a network and is associated with specific subnets.
For instance, in the scenario where a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) is established with the network layer 10.0.0.0/16, along with two subnets, 10.0.0.0/24 and 10.0.1.0/24, each default subnet will be allocated a default route table.
Inside the route table, there will exist a route entry with the following details:
- Destination: 10.0.0.0/16
- Target: local
This particular route entry signifies that resources created within the same VPC can communicate with each other.
