Metric in static routes? [7:50108]

Is there a way to configure a metric to a static route? One can configure the administrative distance. I have a situation where i want to have 2 routes in the routing table , one learned by eigrp and the other a static one the problem is even if i configure the ad of the static with 90 , only

Diego, To configure an Administrative distance on a static route do the following. ip route 10.4.0.0 255.255.0.0 10.1.20.1 100 The AD is set at 100 which is higher that the default of 90 for EIGRP. This is called a floating static route and would be used in case of EIGRP failing. Brgds, Steve

Are you talking about the static on the same router? What does that accomplish? If you were to redistribute the static into EIGRP, you can manipulate the metric. It would take some work to tweak the calculations, but it is doable. The static would then be advertised to the rest of the EIGRP domai

Static routes don't have a metric (As Howard would say) What problem are you trying to solve? About the only reason (I can think of) for 2 routes in the routing table is to load balance across them. If you're not going to load balance (i.e. if the static link is just for redundancy), th

yes chuck what you said is the only solution i implemented to this issue it´s tweaky but possible . one must take in account not only the feasible distance ( or metric ) of the distribution but also to set the administrative distance to be 90 for this specific operation so the router installs bo

really i need to have both routes for load balancing the problem is that only one link runs a routing proto and the other not i agree with you folks that the term metric of a static route is strange but i have no other term to describe the situation regards- Diego Message Posted at: http://www
