What is the default administrative distance of OSPF?
Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer
Administrative distance is the feature that routers use in order to select the best path when there are two or more different routes to the same destination from two different routing protocols.
Administrative distance defines the reliability of a routing protocol. Each routing protocol is prioritized in order of most to least reliable (believable) with the help of an administrative distance value.
