Table 6-6 lists the suggested values for the metric cost parameter by network type
or bit rate.
By default, each OSPF interface has a cost of 1. You can use the BCC or Site
Manager to specify a metric cost for the interface.
Using the BCC
To set a metric cost, go to an OSPF interface prompt (for example,
box; eth 2/2;
ip/2.2.2.2/255.255.0.0; ospf
) and enter:
metric
<
metric>
metric
is the cost of the interface expressed as an integer.
For example, the following command assigns a metric cost of 10 to IP interface
2.2.2.2:
ospf/2.2.2.2#
metric 10
ospf/2.2.2.2#
