Configuring OSPF Route Priority
Since multiple dynamic routing protocols may be running on one router, the problem of route sharing
and selection between various routing protocols arises. The system sets a priority for each routing
protocol (which you can change manually), and when more than one route to the same destination is
discovered by different protocols, the system add the route discovered by the protocol with the highest
priority to the routing table.
