If these features are enabled, rejected routes are advertised by routes with a
metric of 16.
The route configurations can be propagated using one of the following options:
Default Metric
Causes RIP to use the predefined default metric value for the propagated
route configuration.
Transparent (default)
Causes RIP to use the routing table metric as the RIP metric for the
propagated route configuration.
This results in the following behavior:
-If the metric value of a route is equal to or less than 15, this value is used
in the RIP protocol when advertising this route.
-If the metric value of a static route is greater than 15, the route is not
advertised to other routers using RIP.
User Defined Metric
Causes RIP to use the metric value entered by the user.
