Is there a way to define the metric of a OSPF summary route? This is strange, but two routers with the same IOS (and similar commands) are using different approaches: one router is using the highest metric of more specific routes, while the other router is using the lower metric.
This one is using the higher metric: LS age: 1405 Options: (No TOS-capability, DC, Upward) LS Type: Summary Links(Network) Link State ID: 100.7.0.0 (summary Network Number) Advertising Router: rta LS Seq Number: 80016DE5 Checksum: 0x6A95 Length: 28 Network Mask: /16 TOS: 0 Metric: 1603 This one is using the lower metric: Routing Bit Set on this LSA LS age: 946 Options: (No TOS-capability, DC, Upward) LS Type: Summary Links(Network) Link State ID: 100.7.0.0 (summary Network Number) Advertising Router: rtb LS Seq Number: 80008D8C Checksum: 0x3E53 Length: 28 Network Mask: /16 TOS: 0 Metric: 0 The only difference is the platform: one is 7507 and the other 4700.
