When multiple routing protocols offer a route for the same prefix, what part of the router is in charge of deciding which route to make active?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

The routing table manager (RTM) is responsible for selecting the best route when multiple routing protocols provide a route for the same destination prefix. It makes the decision on which route to add to the routing table based on the administrative distance, metric, and other criteria.

I recall a question similar to this where we discussed how the RIB and RTM interact. I think the RIB is the one that decides which route to use.

I’m a bit confused. I thought the forwarding information base (FIB) was more about actual packet forwarding rather than route selection.

I feel like the routing information base (RIB) is involved in this process. It makes sense since it holds all the routing info, right?

I think it's the routing table manager (RTM), but I'm not completely sure. I remember something about it from our last practice exam.
