Hello guys,

I changed the OSPF metric for interface ge/0/0/1.0 to 100, but when I type in the command show ospf route intra, I can see the metric value got replaced from 1 to 2. what the relationship between the 100 and 2 ? regardless the value I type in the metric will be shown as 2. but I can see the real value I typed in when I type : show ospf interface ge-0/0/0.0 detail

So where is this value 2 is coming from ?

cheers

you set a high metric on interface ge-0/0/0

now he is going 2 hops wvia interface ge-0/0/1 ( 1+1)

because of the high metric on the local interface you are now accessing the 172.20.66.0/30 network from the other side
