level-2 (OPTIONAL) Routes are independently redistributed into IS-IS as Level 2 routes. This
setting is the default.

Usage Information
To redistribute a default route (0.0.0.0/0), configure the default-information originate command.
Changing or disabling a keyword in this command does not affect the state of the other command keywords.
When an LSP with an internal metric is received, the Dell EMC Networking OS considers the route cost while
considering the advertised cost to reach the destination.
Redistributed routing information is filtered with the distribute-list out command to ensure that the
routes are properly passed to the receiving routing protocol.
How a metric value assigned to a redistributed route is advertised depends on how on the configuration of the
metric-style command. If the metric-style command is set for Narrow or Transition mode and the
metric value in the redistribute command is set to a number higher than 63, the metric value advertised in
Intermediate System to Intermediate System (IS-IS) 833
