Figure 6-19 Constructing a Shortest Path Tree
The diagram above shows the network from the viewpoint of Router A. Router A can reach 192.213.11.0 through
Router B with a cost of 10 + 5 = 15. Router A can reach 222.211.10.0 through Router C with a cost of 10 + 10 = 20.
Router A can also reach 222.211.10.0 through Router B and Router D with a cost of 10 + 5 + 10 = 25, but the cost is
higher than the route through Router C. This higher-cost route will not be included in the Router A’s shortest path tree.
The resulting tree will look like this:
