Administrative Distance is what determines which route is added to the route
table if multiple sources of routes are seen by the router. Once the
routing protocol with the lowest administrative distance has been chosen,
then multiple paths to a specific network may exist.
You can influence how many routes to a specific destination network show up
in your route table by using the 'maximum paths' command under IGRP, EIGRP,
RIP, and OSPF. IGRP and EIGRP have, in addition, a 'variance' command that
affords you the ability to tell the router to load balance over unequal cost
paths.
BGP is complicated with respect to getting routes to show up in the route
table. That's a different thread all together.
I hope that helps you. Good luck!

In which order are routes added to a routing table? I have tried to see if
it is metrics, routing protocol, order learned.....etc. It seems to be the
order learned, but I am not sure about that. Can anyone clarify?
