Hi,

 I have a doubt regarding static route. I just went through one
document for which the link is given below.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk365/technologies_tech_note09186a0080094195.
shtml

 As per the above document static routes pointing to next-hop ip
address will have administratice distance of 1 and those pointing to outgoing
interface is having administrativedistance of 0. But this is not case when I
tried to configure.

 I have a directly connected multilink and I am
configuring a static route pointing to this multilink.

RINCHNLKB-2A-1750#sh
ip int brief
Multilink1 192.168.45.30 YES NVRAM up
up

RINCHNLKB-2A-1750(config)#ip route 20.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 multilink 1
RINCHNLKB-2A-1750(config)#^Z

RINCHNLKB-2A-1750#sh ip route | include
20.0.0.0
     20.0.0.0/24 is subnetted, 1 subnets
S 20.0.0.0 is directly
connected, Multilink1

RINCHNLKB-2A-1750#sh ip route 20.0.0.0 255.255.255.0
Routing entry for 20.0.0.0/24
  Known via "static", distance 1, metric 0
(connected)
  Routing Descriptor Blocks:
  * directly connected, via
Multilink1
      Route metric is 0, traffic share count is 1

 Now you can see
that AD for this route is 1 instead of 0. Can somebody throw some light into
this ?

Thanks,
Pete
