Metric

This field is valid only for PPPoE encapsulation. The metric

 

3

 

 

 

represents the “cost” of transmission for routing purposes. IP

 

 

 

 

 

routing uses hop count as the measurement of cost, with a

 

 

 

 

 

minimum of 1 for directly connected networks. Enter a number that

 

 

 

 

 

approximates the cost for this link. The number need not be

 

 

 

 

 

precise, but it must be between 1 and 15. In practice, 2 or 3 is

 

 

 

 

 

usually a good number.
