=== Route preference: Static Route Activation and Maximum Distance

ifdef::topdoc[:imagesdir: {topdoc}../../test/case/routing/route_pref_255]

==== Description

This test configures a device with a static route to a destination with 
a moderate routing preference (254), verifying that it becomes active. 
Then, the routing preference is increased to the maximum value (255), 
which should prevent the route from becoming active.

==== Topology

==== Sequence

. Set up topology and attach to target DUTs
. Configure targets with active static route
. Verify that static route with preference 254 is active
. Update static route preference to 255
. Verify that high-preference static route (255) does not become active
