The distance must be validated to ensure that it is unique among all the protocols. If the user attempts to start a protocol
whose administrative distance conflicts with a protocol that is already running, the attempt will fail until the user corrects
the problem.
To change the RIP route administrative distance, use the following command:
configure router rip distance <int>
configure router rip no distance
Where: int
is an integer 1-255 = administrative distance range
The distance must be validated to ensure that it is unique among all the protocols. If the user attempts to start a protocol
whose administrative distance conflicts with a protocol that is already running, the attempt will fail until the user corrects
the problem.
To change the OSPF route administrative distance, use the following command:
configure router ospf [vrf <VRF>] distance <int> ospf external external-value
configure router ospf [vrf <VRF>] no distance
Where: int
is an integer 1-255 = administrative distance range
To set the administrative distance for both internal and external (type 5, 7 LSA) OSPF routes, use the following command:
configure router ospf [vrf <VRF>] distance <int> ospf external <int2>
Where: int
is an integer 1-255 = internal distance range
int2
is an integer 1-255 = external distance range
To change the BGP administrative distance for both internal (iBGP) and external (eBGP) routes, use the following
command:
configure router bgp distance bgp <int>
Where: int
is an integer 1-255 = administrative distance range
To change the IS-IS route administrative distance, use the following commands:
configure router isis distance <int>
configure router isis distance <1-255> isis [external-level1 <int>] [external-level2 <int>]
[internal-level1 <int>] [internal-level2 <int>]
configure router isis no distance
Where: int
is an integer 1-255 = administrative distance range
The C4/c CMTS sets the administrative distance for internal ISIS routes and external level-1 and level-2 routes.
