Parameters

route-policy route-policy-name: Specifies a routing policy by its name, a case sensitive string of 1 to 63 characters. If you specify this option, the command adds an additional metric for the routes that match the routing policy.

value: Adds an additional metric to outbound routes, in the range of 1 to 16.

Usage guidelines

With the command configured on an interface, the metric of RIP routes sent on the interface will be increased.

If a routing policy is referenced with the route-policy keyword, the following operations can be performed:

• Routes matching the policy is added with the metric specified in the apply cost command configured in the policy. Routes not matching it are added with the metric specified in the rip metricout command. The rip metricout command does not support specifying the + or – keyword in the apply cost command to add or reduce a metric.

• If the apply cost command is not configured in the policy, all the outbound routes are added with the metric specified in the rip metricout command.

Examples

# Configure VLAN-interface 10 to add a metric of 6 to the outbound route 1.0.0.0/8 and to add a metric of 2 to other outbound routes.

<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] ip prefix-list 123 permit 1.0.0.0 8
[Sysname] route-policy abc permit node 10
[Sysname-route-policy-abc-10] if-match ip address prefix-list 123
[Sysname-route-policy-abc-10] apply cost 6
[Sysname-route-policy-abc-10] quit
[Sysname] interface vlan-interface 10
[Sysname-Vlan-interface10] rip metricout route-policy abc 2
