Usage
Information
CAUTION: Dell EMC Networking recommends that you do not change the administrative
distance of internal routes. Changing the administrative distances may cause routing table
inconsistencies.
The higher the administrative distance assigned to a route means that your confidence in that route is
low. Routes assigned an administrative distance of 255 are not installed in the routing table. Routes from
confederations are treated as internal BGP routes.
