# Class CIM_AdministrativeDistance
extends CIM_LogicalElement

Information in this class affects the choice of one protocol over another, when two protocols learn the same route. Properties define the preference of a protocol, called its distance. The lower the distance, the higher the preference for that protocol. This class affects ALL routes and contains the default distances. Specific administrative distances relative to an individual route and Forwarding Service are defined in the NextHopForwardedByService association, its AdminDistance property. AdministrativeDistance, being a global object, is weak to the AdminDomain that contains it. Hence, the AdminDomain keys are propagated to this class.
