A Correct answer
Explanation

A static route configured as 'ip route ' without an explicit administrative distance defaults to AD=1. This is the most trusted static route. 192.168.1.2 is the next-hop (gateway), not a local interface. The route appears as 'S' (static) in routing table, not directly connected (C).
