Route Question

[mikemercer77]

Hi I am adding routes to my core switches and had a quick question. If i have a route in place say 192.168.4.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1 and i need to add another route 192.168.0.0 255.255.0.0 192.168.1.2 will the first route still work? or will it be ignored because of the 192.168.0.0 route?

Thanks for your help

Hello

The longest matched prefix is always preferred so in your case 192.168.4.0/24 is preferred over 192.168.0.0/16
