Explanation

A static route is a network route that is manually configured by a network administrator in the routing table. It does not change unless an administrator modifies it. In contrast, dynamic routes (B) are automatically learned and updated by routing protocols such as OSPF, RIP, EIGRP, or BGP. Multicast (C) and Unicast (D) describe types of network communication addressing (one-to-many vs. one-to-one), not routing methods. Static routes are commonly used for simple networks, stub networks, or to define a default gateway route.
