Preference The preference is an integer value from 0 to 255. You can specify the preference value
(sometimes called administrative distance) of an individual static route. Among routes to
the same destination, the route with the lowest preference value is the route entered into
the forwarding database. By specifying the preference of a static route, you control
whether a static route is more or less preferred than routes from dynamic routing
protocols. The preference also controls whether a static route is more or less preferred
than other static routes to the same destination.
Metric The administrative cost of the path to the destination. If no value is entered, the default
is 1. The range is 0–255.
