Command History
Version 8.3.12.0 Introduced on the S4810.
Usage 
Information
If you enter the metric-style wide command, the FTOS generates and accepts only 
new-style TLVs. The router uses less memory and other resources rather than generating both 
old-style and new-style TLVs.
The new-style TLVs have wider metric fields than old-style TLVs.
