IP Routing - Technical MCQs

Q1:

If your routing table has a static, a RIP, and an IGRP route to the same network, which route will be used to route packets by default?

A Any available route

B RIP route

C Static route

D IGRP route

E They will all load-balance.

ANS:C - Static route

Static routes have an administrative distance of 1 by default. Unless you change this, a static route will always be used over any other found route. IGRP has an administrative distance of 100, and RIP has an administrative distance of 120, by default.
