Can anyone please explain the output of the command netstat -rn? I've been trying to understand it from a long time.
Thanks.
 
Have you tried 'man netstat' and read the man pages?

Per the man pages (of Linux - I assume Solaris is similar):

-r: Display the kernel routing tables. See the description in route(8) for details. netstat -r and route -e produce the same output.

-n: Show numerical addresses instead of trying to determine symbolic host, port or user names
