Users Guide

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 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.
