Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Routing metric is used to determine the best path to a destination based on various properties or variables such as hop count, bandwidth, delay, MTU, cost, and reliability.

Answer: G
 MTU (maximum transmission unit) is one of the variables used to calculate routing metrics. It specifies the largest size of data packet that can be transmitted over a network path without fragmentation.

Answer: A
 Administrative distance is not related to routing metrics, but it is a property used by a routing protocol to select the best path when multiple routes are available. It is a measure of the reliability or trustworthiness of the source of the routing information.
