Usage Information
If you enter the metric-style wide command, the Dell Networking OS
generates and accepts only new-style TLVs. The router uses less memory and
other resources rather than generating both old-style and new-style TLVs.
The new-style TLVs have wider metric fields than old-style TLVs.
When wide transition is configured, narrow metric is sent for the narrow metric TLV
and the actual wide metric is sent in wide metric TLV. The receiver can choose to
use the metric that is requires.
