Usage 
Information
With FTOS version 8.3.1.0 and later, 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.
