Command Usage
• The metric for the default external route is used to calculate the path
cost for traffic passed from other routers within the AS out through the
ASBR.
• When you use this command to redistribute routes into a routing
domain (i.e., an Autonomous System, this router automatically
becomes an Autonomous System Boundary Router (ASBR). However,
an ASBR does not, by default, generate a default route into the routing
domain.
- If you use the
always
keyword, the router will advertise itself as a
default external route into the AS, even if a default external route
does not actually exist. (To define a default route, use the
ip route
command.)
- If you do
not
use the
always
keyword, the router can only advertise
a default external route into the AS if the
redistribute
command is
