The protocol-specific resolution value calculates the scaled metric by dividing a route's cost by the
resolution value set for the route protocol:
For ISIS, you can set the resolution in the range 1 to 1000, where the default is 10.
For OSPF, you can set the resolution in the range 1 to 1592, where the default is 1.
The resolution value used to map static routes is not configurable. By default, Dell EMC Networking
OS assigns a metric of 0 to static routes.
The resolution value used to map RIP routes is not configurable. The RIP hop-count is automatically
multiplied by 16 to scale it. For example, a RIP metric of 16 (unreachable) scales to 256, which
considers the route to be DOWN.
