[c-nsp] OSPF and metrics

[Ian MacKinnon]

Hi All,

I think my brain is misfiring today.

I am trying to provide some backup services between to gateway routers, 
on one router I just have a simple route statetment, and on the second 
router I have the same route with a metric on the end :-

router 1
     ip route 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 10.1.0.0.1
router 2
     ip route 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 10.2.0.01 666

ie router1 sends it via its connection, and router 2 is available when 
the link from router 1 goes away

This is then redistributed into ospf on both router, both routers then 
have the same neighbour upstream
  redistribute static metric-type 1 subnets

However when I look upstream I am not seeing the metric, and it is 
choosing the router 2 route

What am I missing?

Thanks
Ian
