Usage
Information
You can use the redistribute command to advertise the IGP cost as the MED
on redistributed routes. When you set the route-map with metric-type internal and
applied outbound to an EBGP peer/peer-group, the advertised routes
corresponding to those peer/peer-groups have the IGP cost set as
MED.
If you do not configure the default-metric command, in addition to the
redistribute command, or there is no route map to set the metric, the metric
for redistributed static and connected is “0”.
To redistribute the default route (0.0.0.0/0), configure the neighbor default-
originate
command.
As BGP does not query next-hop information corresponding to locally originated
routes, a local route with an unreachable next-hop is chosen as the best route.
