By default, IOS considers static routes better than OSPF-learned routes. By default, IOS gives static routes an administrative distance of 1 A floating static route floats or moves into and out of the IP routing table depending on whether the better (lower) administrative distance route learned by the routing protocol happens to exist currently.

The correct answer is C. The backup static route must have a lower AD than the primary route. When the primary static route fails, then an election will happen. The one with the lowest AD wins and take over

golddy, you read it wrong. the secondary route needs a higher AD, not a lower AD. Lower AD gets selected. you are mixed up.i almost agreed with you for a second.

It's D. A says AD should be higher on the primary route. Which is false.
