Tom,

In OSPF the metric is the cost. What I mean here is best clarified as
follows:

1. In RIP the metric as we know is hop count.
2. EIGRP/IGRP use a composite metric based on things such as bandwidth,
delay, etc
3. In OSPF the metric is based on the cost of links. The lower the cost the
more preferred the path

Hope this makes sense.

Hi, group.

   The OSPF's "cost" and "metric" parameters made me
confused. Who can clear it for me?
