This field sets this route's priority among the routes the ZyXEL Device
uses.
The metric represents the "cost of transmission". A router determines the
best route for transmission by choosing a path with the lowest "cost". RIP
routing uses hop count as the measurement of cost, with a minimum of "1"
for directly connected networks. The number must be between "1" and
"15"; a number greater than "15" means the link is down. The smaller the
number, the lower the "cost".
