If multiple routes match the destination and have the same prefix length, the index number
of the routes in the routing table is used to determine the route.
CLI command:
ip 0 cidr on
Route Metrics
Route Metric settings can be set to override the order in which the routes are searched.
Routes with lower metric numbers will always be used in preference to routes with higher
metric numbers even if the routes with higher metric numbers appear first in the routing
table.
Route metrics can be configured by means of the route parameters:
Connected Metric
Disconnected Metric
Route metrics can be altered automatically according to various circumstances. This is in
order to provide automatic backup connection paths.
Routes and interfaces can be put out of service.
Whenever an interface is out of service (oos) any route pointing at the interface will also be
out of service.
Whenever a route is out of service, the metric value will be set to 16 in TransPort routing
mode and 17 in CIDR mode.
