Connectivity Guide

Usage Information Assigns a metric for locally-originated routes such as redistributed routes. After you redistribute routes in BGP, use
this command to reset the metric value — the new metric does not immediately take eect. The new metric takes
eect only after you disable and re-enable route redistribution for a specied protocol. To re-enable route
distribution use the redistribute {connected [route-map map-name] | ospf process-id |
static [route-map map-name]} command, or use the clear ip bgp * command after you reset BGP.
The no version of this command removes the default metric value.
Example (IPv4)
OS10(conf-router-bgpv4-af)# default-metric 60
Example (IPv6)
OS10(conf-router-bgpv6-af)# default-metric 60
Supported Releases 10.3.0E or later
default-originate
Congures the default route to a BGP peer or neighbor.
Syntax
default—originate [route-map route-map-name]
Parameters route-map route-map-name—(Optional) Enter a route-map name. A maximum of 140 characters.
Default Enabled
Command Mode
ROUTER-BGP-NEIGHBOR-AF
ROUTER-TEMPLATE-AF
Usage Information The no version of this command removes the default route.
Example

distance bgp
Sets the administrative distance for BGP routes.
Syntax

• internal-distance—Enter a number to assign to routes learned from a router within the AS, from 1 to
255.
•
local-distance—Enter a number to assign to routes learned from networks listed in the network
command, from 1 to 255.
