If the following protocols are redistributed into OSPF, which protocol will receive a metric of 1 if none is specified, rather than the default metric of 20?

  • EIGRP
  • RIP
  • IGRP
  • BGP
Explanation:
Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) routes that are redistributed into OSPF will be marked with a metric of 1 if no other metric is specified. All other routing protocols will receive a metric of 20 when redistributed into OSPF.

A metric can be manually specified when redistributing the route, as shown below:

router5(config)# router ospf 10
router5(config-router)# redistribute bgp 120 metric 5

Objective:
Layer 3 Technologies
Sub-Objective:
Configure and verify redistribution between any routing protocols or routing sources
