Configuring RIP Route Default-Metric
You can define the metric used when advertising routes via RIP that were learned from
other protocols. The default value for this parameter is 16 (unreachable). To export routes
from other protocols into RIP, you must explicitly specify a value for the default-metric
parameter. The metric specified by the default-metric parameter may be overridden by a
metric specified in the export command.
To configure default-metric, enter the following command in Configure mode.
For
