I accidentally deleted the posting about this but I wanted to make a point. It's been said that a static route has an AD of 1 unless it points directly out an interface, in which case it has an AD of 0. Sasa just mentioned that this has been discussed in the past and is a myth. However, I'd like to agree with the 'myth'.
A directly connected route has an AD of 0. If you create a static route pointing directly out an interface, that route will show up as directly connected in the routing table, and would therefore have an AD of 0. In fact, if you look at a static route you'll see the usual [AD/metric] listed as [1/0]. However, if you look at a static route pointing out an interface this is missing. This is because the router treats that route as if it were directly connected to the interface. If I'm wrong about this--and I certainly might be--please let me know where my reasoning is incorrect.
