The router will build its routing table by taking all the matching routes with specific masks and then selecting those with the lowest admin distance. Finally, it will use cost to select the preferred route(s).

It is quite possible for you to end up with a routing table containing a more general route for a network from a routing protocol with a low admin distance, but a more specific route to a subnet within that network from a protocol with a higher admin distance.

thanks.
