Highest administrative distance is never used to select the best route, we want lowest administrative distance.

Generally its C and E But if we are talking about OSPF's perspective in our case which is the 1.0.0.0/8 network is only reachable via OSPF then the SPT path selection would be:- A. Lowest cost to reach the next hop C. Lowest metric

Selected Answer: CE
C & E is the correct answer The route to the rest of the routers will be learned through OSPF since it's the only match for the IP addresses for routers R2, R3 & R4. OSPF uses the lowest cumulative cost from the source to the destination not just the cost to the next hop. B & D are wrong since the lower the AD and the metric are, the better. A is wrong since we use the cumulative cost to the destination not just the next hop.

It's the classic CCNA gotcha: take something correct and add an incorrect element. Lowest cost would be a great answer for an OSPF environment, but lowest cost to the *next hop* doesn't help us; the total cost for the route could be bad.

Same question, why not A? For me lowest cost refers to both AD and metric ...

I would say A too. OSPF uses cost as a metric

Distance to the next hop is not of any importance to us.
