Type-1 increments the cost as it moves through the ospf network, this is easier
to use when you need to prefer one routing path over another with a external
network advertisement. Type-2's cost stays the same through the ospf network,
but for duplicate advertisements the forwarding metric and fowarding address
w/metric will make one type-2 preferred over the other.

Subject: which metric-type in ospf?
Hi group,
While redistributing into OSPF, and the task does not specify whether it should
by a external type 1 or type 2, which one do you configure / prefer and why?
External type-1 or external type-2?
I would say a type-1 because OSPF will always prefer a type-1 over a type-2.
What do you think?
Thanks
Roger
