Metric
The metric represents the “cost” of transmission for routing
purposes. IP routing uses hop count as the measurement of
cost, with a minimum of [1] for directly connected networks.
Enter a number that approximates the cost for this link. The
number need not be precise, but it must be between [1] and
[16]. In practice, [2] or [3] is usually a good number.
[1] to [16]
