question about "show ip route" output

R 10.10.10.8 [120/2] via 10.10.10.6,00:00:20, Serial0/1

From this route entry, can we say 10.10.10.6 is assigned to the router's serial0/1 interface?

Does "00:00:20" mean it has been 20 seconds since the route was checked last time? When will the route be checked again?

No. 10.10.10.6 is the next hop.

10.10.10.6 is the next hop. That IP address is off of serial0/1. That is to say there is another router with an interface connected to your serial0/1, which has the IP Address 10.10.10.6. I believe the 00:00:20 is the amount of time since the route was last learned. If that counter starts to get high, you have a problem.

What routing protcol are you using and what are the timers for that protocol.

Really? So uptime of BGP route over a day is bad?

The route in question was a RIP route, as indicated by the "R" on the left. The counters mean different things for different protocols.
