==== Configuring administrative distance ====

The administrative distance can be manually (re)configured so that the static route can be configured as a backup route, to be used only if the dynamic route is unavailable.<ref name=distance>Cisco Systems (2013), [http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk365/technologies_tech_note09186a0080094195technologies_tech_.shtml What is Administrative Distance?], retrieved 12 June 2014</ref>

<code>'''Router(config)#''' ip route 10.10.20.0 255.255.255.0 exampleRoute 1 254</code>.

Setting the administrative distance to 254 will result in the route being used only as a backup.
