Command Syntax and Usage

metric <metric (1-4294967294)>noneSets default metric of advertised routes.

default noneimportoriginateredistribute

Sets default route action.

Defaults routes can be configured as import, originate, redistribute, or none. None: No routes are configured

Import: Import these routes.

Originate: The switch sends a default route to peers if it does not have any default routes in its routing table.

Redistribute: Default routes are either configured through default gateway or learned through other protocols and redistributed to peer. If the routes are learned from default gateway configura- tion, you have to enable static routes since the routes from default gateway are static routes. Simi- larly, if the routes are learned from a certain routing protocol, you have to enable that protocol in this redistribute submenu.
