IP ROUTING COMMANDS

•Metric type specifies the way to advertise routes to destinations outside the AS via External LSAs. Specify Type 1 to add the internal cost metric to the external route metric. In other words, the cost of the route from any router within the AS is equal to the cost associated with reaching the advertising ASBR, plus the cost of the external route. Specify Type 2 to only advertise the external route metric.

Example

This example redistributes routes learned from RIP as Type 1 external routes.

Console(config-router)#redistribute rip metric-type 1

Console(config-router)#
