default-metric (OSPF)
To set default metric values for OSPF, use the default-metric command. Use the
no form of the command to remove the default-metric setting.
default-metric METRIC-VALUE
no default-metric
Default 1
Command Mode Router configuration
Usage Guideline The default-metric command is used in conjunction with the redistribute router
command (redistribute command on page 517) to cause the current routing
protocol to use the same metric value for all redistributed routes.
A default metric helps solve the problem of redistributing routes with an
incompatible metric. Whenever a metric does not convert, using a default metric
provides a reasonable substitute and enables the redistribution to proceed.
The setting precedence that determines the metric is:
metric in redistributed command > default-metric setting.
Example The following example shows a router redistributing RIP-derived routes into the
OSPF domain and all redistributed routes are advertised with an OSPF metric of
10.
Syntax Description
METRIC-VALUE Default metric value appropriate for the specified routing protocol.
Switch(config)# router ospf
Switch(config-router)# default-metric 1
Switch(config-router)# redistribute rip
Switch(config-router)# end
Switch#
