Hello - How is the metric calculated in BGP? Would specifying route-maps for BGP neighbors (neighbor x.x.x.x route-map NAME in) and having (set as-path prepend AS-NUM) in that route-map cause a metric not to be calculated? I have 4 uplinks to 4 different providers. 2 have route-maps specified for outbound packets. These 2 never show a metric in "show ip bgp x.x.x.x" I have a 3rd link (no route-map) that 95% of the time has a metric of 0. What causes that? Thank you. David
