CCNA IP Routing – Administrative Distance

September 15, 2009

When there are multiple routing protocols on a router and metrics do not help, they use the default administrative distance per routing protocol. These are good numbers to memorize for the CCNA test. Cisco may test you on a simple question such as:

What is the administrative distance for RIPv1?

IGRP100
