OSPF COMMANDS
DEFAULT
-INFORMATION ORIGINATE
default-information originate
Overview This command creates a default external route into an OSPF routing domain.
When you use the default-information originate command to redistribute
routes into an OSPF routing domain, then the system acts like an Autonomous
System Boundary Router (ASBR). By default, an ASBR does not generate a default
route into the OSPF routing domain.
When using this command, also specify the route-map <route-map> option to
avoid a dependency on the default network in the routing table.
The metric-type is an external link type associated with the default route
advertised into the OSPF routing domain. The value of the external route could be
either Type 1 or 2. The default is Type 2.
The no variant of this command disables this feature.
