Attribute Description
Metric Allows you to assign a cumulative value (in terms of hop count or associated
cost [if applicable]) to routes passing through this interface. The routing
manager adds the metric value of all routes learned through this interface to
the metric value of this interface to make routing decisions. The possible
values are 1 to 16. Because RIP protocol can handle up to 15 hop counts
before reaching destination, a value of 16 corresponds to “counting to
infinity”
The default value is 1.
Routing Table
Update Mode
Allows you to specify the routing table update mode. The possible values are:
On Demand: the router sends its table when another established router
requests it.
Periodic: the router sends its table to other established router at regular
intervals.
The default value is Periodic.
