Don't you need to give the protocol's routes a default (or "base") metric
whenever you redistribute routing protocols with incompatible metrics?
EIGRP has a composite metric, whereas BGP has...well, I don't know what it
has off the top of my head...an AS path?  Either way, they're not the same
thing, so you've gotta give the router a little "push" when it does the
redistribution.

Subject: Deciphering the default-metric command...


Just did the Fatkid Basic BGP lab #320.  I am trying to understand why I
needed the command default-metric 64000 2 225 1 1500 under the eigrp 1
process on router 4.  I could not advertise the 10.0.0.0 network from
router4 to the other members of AS 200 until I used it.  I just want to hear
some explanantions as to why.  What default-metric did this command change ?

Thanks a lot
