i rewiew my router configuration and i found :-
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 Serial1/0:1
ip route 10.0.14.31 255.255.255.255 FastEthernet0/0
what we mean by two command ??? and what we mean by 255.255.255.255
and 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0

and 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0
Let's dissect this one line at a time.
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 Serial1/0:1
The first ip route command will dictate Serial1/0:1 as a default interface for all packet routing.
ip route 10.0.14.31 255.255.255.255 FastEthernet0/0
The second ip route command dictates that any network packet that is seeking for a destination address that's within the range of 10.0.14.31/255.255.255.255 will be routed through FastEthernet0/0
The value of 255.255.255.255
is a subnet mask value. It is a deterministic value that defines that scope of the network that your router has been assigned to handle.
