default-metric

◆
If the network addresses within an area are assigned in a contiguous manner,
the ABRs can advertise a summary route that covers all of the individual
networks within the area that fall into the specified range using a single area
range command.
◆
If routes are set to be advertised by this command, the router will issue a Type 3
summary LSA for each address range specified by this command.
◆
This router supports up 64 summary routes for area ranges.
Example
This example creates a summary address for all area routes in the range of 73::/8, or
all IPv6 address that start with the first byte 73 (hexadecimal).
Console(config-router)#area 1 range 73::/8 advertise
Console(config-router)#
This command sets the default metric for external routes imported from other
protocols. Use the no form to remove the default metric for the supported protocol
types.
Syntax

Command Usage
◆
The default metric must be used to resolve the problem of redistributing
external routes from other protocols that use incompatible metrics.
◆
This command does not override the metric value set by the
command. When a metric value has not been configured by the
command, the default-metric command sets the metric value to be used for
all imported external routes.
Example
Console(config-router)#default-metric 100
Console(config-router)#
