Specify the Route Metric

To associate a metric value with an IPv4 route, include the metric statement:

[edit routing-options static (defaults | route)] 

metric metric <type type>; 

For a list of hierarchy levels at which you can configure this statement, see the statement summary section for this statement.

To associate a metric value with an IPv6 route, include the metric statement:

[edit routing-options rib inet6.0 static (defaults | route)] 

metric metric <type type>; 

For a list of hierarchy levels at which you can configure this statement, see the statement summary section for this statement.

In the type option, you can specify the type of route. For OSPF, when routes are exported to OSPF, type 1 routes are advertised in type 1 externals and routes of any other type are advertised in type 2 externals. Note that if a qualified-next-hop metric value is configured, this value will override the route metric.
