An administrator executes the command `show ip route` on a Cisco router and observes the following routing table entry:
`O 10.40.0.0/24 [110/50] via 172.16.1.2, 00:15:30, GigabitEthernet0/0`
Which component of the routing table entry is represented by the numerical value 50 inside the brackets?
- The metric (cost) of the route to the destination networkCevap
- BThe administrative distance of the OSPF protocol
- CThe process ID assigned to the active routing process
- DThe hop count limit remaining on packets matching this route
Cevap
The numerical value 50 inside the brackets represents the metric (cost) of the route to the destination network.
In Cisco IOS routing tables, bracketed values following a destination network prefix use the standard format `[Administrative Distance / Metric]`. In the given output `[110/50]`, `110` is the default Administrative Distance for OSPF routes, and `50` is the calculated cost metric to reach network `10.40.0.0/24`.
