Usage
Information
With FTOS version 8.3.1.0 and later, the redistribute command can be used to advertise the IGP cost as
the MED on redistributed routes. When the route-map is set with metric-type internal and applied
outbound to an EBGP peer/peer-group, the advertised routes corresponding to those peer/peer-group
will have IGP cost set as MED.
If you do not configure 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.
