path-selection metric (TE interface configuration mode)

Usage Guidelines If you configure the TE path selection metric type, you should configure the MPLS TE administrative
weight on each interface for which TE is enabled.
Use this command to specify the metric type to be used for traffic engineering (TE) tunnels for which
the tunnel path-selection metric command has not been specified.
The metric type to be used for path calculation for a given tunnel is determined as follows:
•If you entered the tunnel path-selection metric command was entered to specify a metric type for the
tunnel, use that metric type.
•If you entered the TE configuration mode path-selection metric was entered to specify a metric type,
use that metric type.
•If you did not do any of the above tasks, use the default (te) metric.
This command requires the MPLS Services license.
Examples This example shows how to configure the metric type to use if a metric type is not explicitly configured
for an MPLS TE tunnel:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface tunnel-te 1
