They look the same as far as a route goes, except like you note that the
cost increases on an E1. Otherwise, they have the same characteristics as
far as whether they're allowed in certain area types (or not), and how the
next-hop information is handled.

You'll see them in your routing table as O E1 or O E2 routes. :)

Subject: OSPF External Types

Hello There,

I would like to know the difference between E1 and E2 (default) external
types ? For instance I know that OE1 add the internal cost of each link it
crosses and OE2 does not. Let me know if there is something beyond this.

Also, how can I change the default behaviour, I mean what can I do so that I
see in my routing table a E1 instead a E2 ? Any exaple would be appreciate.

Regards
