Question

A network administrator configures a router with both a static route and an OSPF-learned route to the same destination network, 10.20.0.0/16. Both routes point to different next-hop routers. Assuming default settings, which route will the router install in its routing table and use to forward traffic?

Accepted Answer

The static route, because it has a lower administrative distance

Answer

The OSPF route, because it dynamically calculates the shortest path

Answer

Both routes will be load-balanced equally across the two next hops

Answer

The route with the highest metric value will be preferred
