Routing Preferences View


Use the Routing Preferences View to specify preference values for protocols, static routes, and aggregated static routes.

To present the Routing Preferences View, click the Route Preferences link in the Routing Configuration section of the Config Tool main menu. The following figure shows an example of the Routing Preferences View.

Preferences choose between equivalent routes from different sources. The route corresponding to the source with the lowest preference number is the one which is installed in the forwarding table at this node.

Unless your network has multiple routes to the same destination, and there is a policy reason to choose one route over another, the defaults should be used.

The following section describes the fields in the Routing Preferences View.
