default-metric (IPv6 OSPF)
To set the default metric for IPv6 OSPF, use the default-metric command. To
return the metric to its default value, use the no form of this command.
default-metric METRIC-VALUE
no default-metric [METRIC-VALUE]
Default METRIC-VALUE: 20
Command Mode Router configuration
Usage Guideline The default-metric command is used in conjunction with the redistribute router
configuration command (redistribute (IPv6 OSPF) command on page 520) 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 order of the setting precedence to determine the metric is:
set metric in redistributed command > default-metric setting.
Example The following example shows an IPv6 OSPF redistributing routes from RIP. All
redistributed routes are advertised with a metric of 10.
Syntax Description
METRIC-VALUE Default metric value. A number from 1 to 16777214.
