Command to see all floatings routes

With the classic 'show ip route static', the backup floating route is not seen in the display:

Router#show  ip route static
Codes: L - local, C - connected, S - static, R - RIP, M - mobile, B - BGP
       D - EIGRP, EX - EIGRP external, O - OSPF, IA - OSPF inter area
       N1 - OSPF NSSA external type 1, N2 - OSPF NSSA external type 2
       E1 - OSPF external type 1, E2 - OSPF external type 2
       i - IS-IS, su - IS-IS summary, L1 - IS-IS level-1, L2 - IS-IS level-2
       ia - IS-IS inter area, * - candidate default, U - per-user static route
       o - ODR, P - periodic downloaded static route, H - NHRP, l - LISP
       + - replicated route, % - next hop override

Gateway of last resort is 10.10.2.1 to network 0.0.0.0

S*    0.0.0.0/0 [1/0] via 10.10.2.1

In order to see both routes, active and non-active route, we have to use the command 'show ip static route'. With this command, both routes and metrics are seen:

Router#show ip static route
Codes: M - Manual static, A - AAA download, N - IP NAT, D - DHCP,
       G - GPRS, V - Crypto VPN, C - CASA, P - Channel interface proces
       B - BootP, S - Service selection gateway
       DN - Default Network, T - Tracking object
       L - TL1, E - OER, I - iEdge
       D1 - Dot1x Vlan Network, K - MWAM Route
       PP - PPP default route, MR - MRIPv6, SS - SSLVPN
       H - IPe Host, ID - IPe Domain Broadcast
       U - User GPRS, TE - MPLS Traffic-eng, LI - LIIN
       IR - ICMP Redirect
Codes in []: A - active, N - non-active, B - BFD-tracked, D - Not Track

Static local RIB for default

M  0.0.0.0/0 [1/0] via 10.10.2.1 [A]
M            [5/0] via 10.10.25.1 [N]
