default-metric (RIP)
Use this command to define the default RIP metric in the route configuration mode. The
no
form of this command is used to restore it to the default value.

Parameter
Description
metric
Default metric in the range of 1 to 16. If the metric
is greater than or equal to 16, the DES-7200
regards the route unreachable.
Default
configuration
The default value is 1.
Command
mode
Routing process configuration mode.
Usage
guidelines
This command needs to work with the command
redistribute
. When
the routes are redistributed to the RIP routing process from a routing
protocol process, the route metric cannot be converted due to the
incompatibility of the metric calculation mechanism of different
protocols. During the conversion, therefore, it is required to redefine
the metric of redistributed routes in the RIP routing domain. If there is
no clear definition of metric in redistributing a routing protocol
process, the RIP uses the metric defined with
default-metric
. If a
clear metric is defined, this value overwrites the metric defined with
default-metric
. If this command is not configured, the default value of
default-metric is 1.
Examples
In the configuration example below, the RIP routing protocol
redistributes the routes learned by the OSPF routing protocol, whose
initial RIP metric is set as 3.
DES-7210 (config)#
router rip
DES-7210 (config-router)#
default-metric
3
DES-7210 (config-router)#
