JUNOSe 9.1.x Command Reference Guide N to Z > S Commands > set metric

set metric

Description: 

Modifies the metric value (for BGP, the MED) for a route that matches the route map by applying a relative or absolute metric. The no version removes the set clause from a route map.

NOTE: You cannot have an absolute and a relative metric within the same route map sequence. Issuing either command overrides any previously configured metric in the route map.

Syntax: 

set metric [ +relValue | -relValue | absValue ]

no set metric

• +—Specifies that the value is added to the metric for routes matching the route map; immediately precedes the metric value with no intervening space
• –—Specifies that the value is subtracted from the metric for routes matching the route map; immediately precedes the metric value with no intervening space
• relValue—Number, in the range 0–4294967295
• absValue—Number, in the range 0–4294967295
