Prestige 623ME-T User’s Guide

The metric sets the priority for the Prestige’s routes to the Internet. If any two of the default routes have the same metric, the Prestige uses the following pre-defined priorities:

1.Normal route: designated by the ISP

2.Traffic-redirect route

IP Policy Routing overrides the default routing behavior and takes priority over all

of the routes mentioned above (see the IP Policy Routing chapter).

For example, if the normal route has a metric of "1" and the traffic-redirect route has a metric of "2", then the normal route acts as the primary default route. If the normal route fails to connect to the Internet, the Prestige tries the traffic-redirect route next.
