SET
METRIC
set metric
Overview
Use this command to add a metric set clause to a route map entry.
When a routeor BGP update message matches the route map entry, the device
takes one of the following actions:
•
changes the metric(or for BGP, the MED attribute value) to the specified
value, or
•
adds or subtracts the specified value from the metricor MED attribute, if you
specify
+
or
-
before the value (for example, to increase the metric by 2, enter
+2)
Use the
no
variant of this command to remove the set clause.
Syntax
set metric {+<
metric-value
>|-
<metric-value>
|
<metric-value>
}
no set metric [+
<metric-value>
|-
<metric-value>
|
<metric-value>
]
Default
The default metric value for routes redistributed into OSPF and OSPFv3 is 20.
Mode
Route-map Configuration
Usage
For BGP, if you want the device to compare MED values in update messages from
peers in different ASes, also enter the command
. The
device always compares MED values in update messages from peers in the same
AS.
This command is valid for:
•
OSPF routes
•
routes in BGP update messages
•
RIP routes.
Note that defining the OSPF metric in a route map supersedes the metric defined
using a
command. For more
information, see the
OSPFv3 Feature Overview and Configuration Guide
and the
OSPF Feature Overview and Configuration Guide
