28.10 match metric

Use this command to match a metric of a route.

Use the no parameter with this command to disable this function.

The match metric command specifies the metric to be matched. If there is a match for the

specified metric, and permit is specified, the route is redistributed or controlled as specified by

the set action. If the match criteria are met, and deny is specified, the route is not redistributed

or controlled. If the match criteria are not met, the route is neither accepted nor forwarded,

irrespective of permit or deny specifications.

The route specified by the policies might not be the same as specified by the routing protocols.

Setting policies enable packets to take different routes depending on their length or content.

Packet forwarding based on configured policies overrides packet forwarding specified in routing

tables.

Note:

This command is valid for BGP, OSPF and RIP only.
