Pat,

This is showing you where traffic will be sent (gateway) depending on its
destination for your computer.

So traffic to your 10.0.0.0/24 network gets sent to 10.0.0.10
Traffic to 10.0.0.10 gets sent to the loopback (the 127 address)
Everything else goes to 10.0.0.1 (your router, right?)

That is the general gist of your table... the rest is broadcast, multicast
and loopback stuff.

Go get a Cisco book on Introduction to Networking or the CCNA for basic
info.
