It is commonly used in space missions to transfer payloads between different orbits
OTV mechanism can be used to transfer payloads from low Earth orbit to geostationary orbit
It is also used for transferring payloads from one planet to
Administrative distances are values used by IGPs to determine the best path for routing.
Administrative distances are used to determine the trustworthiness of routing information received from different sources.
Lower administrative distances are preferred over higher ones.
Examples of IGPs and their default administrative distances include OSPF (110), IS-IS (115), and RIP (120).
OSPF should be priority over eBGP. Achieve this by manipulating administrative distance or metric.
OSPF should be preferred over eBGP as it is an interior gateway protocol while eBGP is an exterior gateway protocol
Manipulate administrative distance to make OSPF preferred over eBGP
Manipulate metric to make OSPF preferred over eBGP
Use route maps to manipulate the preference of OSPF over eBGP
Example: set the administrative...
