User Guidelines
The configured metric value is specific to the routes distributed. Use the
default-metric command to configure a default metric for all redistributed
routes.
The RIP metric is a hop count. The metric for a redistributed route limits the
distance the route can be redistributed in the RIP network. Since the
maximum valid metric in a RIP network is 15, redistributing routes into RIP
with a metric of 12 implies that the route can only be redistributed across 3
hops in the RIP network.
In general, redistributing routes from BGP into a RIP network is not
recommended.
Command History
Introduced in version 6.2.0.1 firmware.
