Viewing stub area metrics

The Stub Area Metrics tab contains the set of metrics that will be advertised by a default area border router into a stub area.

To view the set of stub area metrics:

1. From the Device Manager menu bar, choose IP Routing > OSPF.

The OSPF dialog box opens with the General tab displayed.

2. Click the Stub Area Metrics tab.

The Stub Area Metrics tab opens.

3. Specify a new metric speed in the value field of the Interface Metric field or the metric field of the port OSPF tab.
4. Click Apply.
   
   

   Note: When you enable a port for OSPF routing, the default metric in the port tab is "0." A value of "0" (zero) means that the port will use the default metrics for port types that are specified on the OSPF general tab.
