Modifying the Incoming Metric

By default, RIP imports routes from the neighbors configured with the neighbor statement. These routes include those learned from RIP as well as those learned from other protocols. By default, routes that RIP imports from its neighbors have a metric of 1 added to the current route metric.

To change the default metric to be added to incoming routes, include the metric-in statement:




metric-in metric;

metric can be a value from 1 through 16.

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