I found the following content in the file: /etc/iproute2/rt_tables



255 local
254 main
253 default
0 unspec
#1 inr.ruhep
126 anycast_test_1
127 anycast_test_2


I did read some documents about rt_tables, but I still can't understand what do the numbers mean, such as: 255,254,254,0,126,127



Do the words(in the right side) represent iptables, such as: local,main,default,unspec,anycast_test1 ...
If so, where can I find these tables? I mean is there a file called local or main which would contain some routing items/rules just like a route table in router device.
