When a router learns of more than 1 path to the same destination, the IPX
RIP algorithm uses the following route selection criteria:

- Keep the route with the lowest number of ticks
- If multiple routes exist with the same number of ticks, keep the route
with the lowest number of hops
- If both ticks and hops are equal for both routes, then keep both routes

Hope this helps -

Brian
