If you sent that route over a tunnel it would only
increase it by one. There is now other way to change
it. I herd somewhere that a person had a problem
getting a route to a certain router. It was because
the route was injected with hop count of 14. The only
way, and what turned out to be the right answer, was
to tunnel it to the ultimate destination.
