On MikroTik devices, a route that appears blue in the route list indicates that it is a route dynamic which has been learned through a dynamic routing protocol.
This differs from static routes (which typically appear in black) and directly connected routes (which typically appear in green).
Dynamic routes are those that the router has learned through routing protocols such as OSPF, BGP, RIP, among others. These protocols allow routers to exchange route information automatically and adjust to changes in network topology without manual intervention.
The blue color in the MikroTik user interface serves to help network administrators quickly identify the origin of a route and understand how traffic is being managed across the network.
Importantly, using colors to differentiate route types can assist in network management and diagnostics, providing a quick and clear visualization of how data is being routed within the network infrastructure.
