31-125

Switch(config-router)#default-metric 3

Relevant Commands:

Redistribute

31.9 distance

Command:

distance <number> [<A.B.C.D/M>] [<access-list-name | access-list-number >]

no distance [<A.B.C.D/M> ]

Function:

Set the managing distance with this command. The “no distance [<A.B.C.D/M>]” command

restores the default value to 120.

Parameter:

<number> specifies the distance value, ranging between 1 to 255.

<A.B.C.D/M> specifies the network prefix and its length.

<access-list-name | access-list-number > specifies the access-list number or name applied.

Default:

The default managing distance of RIP is 120.

Command Mode:

Router mode and address-family mode

Usage Guide:

In case there are routes from two different routing protocols to the same destination, the managing

distance is then used for selecting routes. The less the managing distance of the route protocol is,

the more reliable will be the route acquired from the protocol.

Example:

Switch# config terminal

Switch(config)# router rip

Switch(config-router)# distance 8 10.0.0.0/8 mylist

31.10 distribute-list

Command:

distribute-list {<access-list-number | access-list-name> |prefix<prefix-list-name>} {in|out}

[<ifname>]

no distribute-list {<access-list-numbe r| access-list-name> |prefix<prefix-list-name>} {in|out}

[<ifname>]

Function:

This command uses access-list or prefix-list to filter the route update packets sent and received.

The “no distribute-list {<access-list-number| access-list-name> |prefix<prefix-list-name>}

{in|out} [<ifname>]” command cancels this route filter function.
