Use this page to configure the default preference for each protocol. These values are 
arbitrary values in the range of 1 to 255 and are independent of route metrics. Most routing 
protocols use a route metric to determine the shortest path known to the protocol, 
independent of any other protocol. The best route to a destination is chosen by selecting the 
route with the lowest preference value. When there are multiple routes to a destination, the 
preference values are used to determine the preferred route. If there is still a tie, the route 
with the best route metric is chosen. To avoid problems with mismatched metrics you must 
configure different preference values for each of the protocols.
