One of the great attributes that she will see whenever you deal with static crowds or dynamic routing
protocols such as rape or SPF is the administrative a distance.
Now the administrative distance is a measure or a number that is used by routers to determine which
shroud is the preferred route for the destination.
The lower the number the better the route.
If your 40 gauge has a connected network to it then the route to it is numbered 0.
That is the best trunk is the rack that is connected directly to your forehead.
If it has a static crowd as we have here it has an administrative distance of 10 and so it goes on our
behalf is one hundred and ten and rape is one hundred and twenty.
Now if we have two routes to the same destination the lower the administrative distance that is the
route it will be chosen.
So if we have one static crowd that is to the default trout that has an administrative distance of 10
and we will configure now another staggered crowd to the same destination which is the default trout
now will choose another interface went to art gate which will be turned to that ninety nine now will
choose a bigger administrative distance.
So now we have two static rounds to the same destination one with the administrative distance of 20
and one with administrative distance of 10.
Now if we will use the get router info routing table
0 take a look.
The only static crowd the leads are packets to the default trust is the static crowd that was configure
with the administrative distance of 10.
That is the best match route that 48 finds whenever it sees packets for destined to the default route
if we will use the database instead instead of all we will see the whole routing table which also includes
the one the new route that we have just configure.
But as you can see the only one that is active is that static route.
