Modifying the Incoming Metric

By default, RIPng imports routes from the neighbors configured with the neighbor statement. These routes include those learned from RIPng as well as those learned from other protocols. By default, routes that RIPng 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 15. A value of 16 indicates infinity, or unreachable.

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