I implemented the example in the link you sent and noticed that it does
not matter which order you enter the commands. The resulting routing
table is the same, and the "show run" command sorts "distance 255" at
the top regardless of whether you put it in first or last.
---------
router igrp 109
network 172.16.0.0
network 192.168.7.0
distance 255
distance 90 192.168.7.0 0.0.0.255
distance 120 172.16.1.3 0.0.0.0
SHOW IP ROUTE: note the AD has been set to 120 below.
Gateway of last resort is not set
172.16.0.0/24 is subnetted, 1 subnets
C 172.16.1.0 is directly connected, Serial0
I 199.3.3.0/24 [120/8976] via 172.16.1.3, 00:00:21, Serial0
r2503b#
---------
Needless to add, IGRP is no longer a part of the CCIE Lab.
BTW, the distance command works differently under other routing
protocols, particularly in OSPF where you must specify the type of
route.
r2501a(config-router)#distance ospf ?
external External type 5 and type 7 routes
inter-area Inter-area routes
intra-area Intra-area routes
