Description
The rip set check-zero-metric command specifies whether RIP should accept routes with
a metric of zero. This may be necessary for interoperability with other RIP
implementations that send routes with a metric of zero.
• If you use the disable keyword, RIP accepts routes that have a metric of zero and treats
them as though they were received with a metric of 1.
• If you use the enable keyword, RIP rejects routes that have a metric of zero. This is the
default state.
Parameters
disable | enable
Enables or disables acceptance of RIP routes that have a metric of zero.
Restrictions
None.
