Command History
This guide is platform-specific. For command information about other platforms, refer to the
relevant FTOS Command Line Reference Guide .
The following is a list of the FTOS version history for this command.

Version 8.3.11.1 Introduced on the Z9000.
Version 8.3.7.0 Introduced on the S4810.
Version 8.3.1.0 Introduced the ability to substitute IGP cost for MED when a peer/

Usage
Information
With FTOS version 8.3.1.0 and later, you can use the redistribute command to advertise
the IGP cost as the MED on redistributed routes. When you set the route-map with metric-type
internal and applied outbound to an EBGP peer/peer-group, the advertised routes
corresponding to those peer/peer-groups have the IGP cost set as MED.
If you do not configure the default-metric command, in addition to the redistribute
command, or there is no route map to set the metric, the metric for redistributed static and
connected is “0”.
To redistribute the default route (0.0.0.0/0), configure the neighbor default-
originate command.
