default-information

Controls the distribution of default route information. Use the default-information → originate command to advertise a default route in the routing table.

This option is disabled by default. When enabled, the default route becomes a distributed route.

Supported in the following platforms:

Access Points — AP410i/e, AP460i/e, AP505i, AP510i/e, AP560i/h, AP7522, AP7532, AP7562, AP7612, AP7632, AP7662, AP8432, AP8533

Syntax

default-information originate {always|metric|metric-type}

default-information originate {always|metric <0-16777214>|metric-type [1|2]} {(metric <0-16777214>|metric-type [1|2])}

Parameters

default-information originate {always|metric <0-16777214>|metric-type [1|2]} {(metric <0-16777214>|metric-type [1|2])}


originate	Originates default route information. Enabling this feature makes the default route a distributed route. This option is disabled by default.
always	Optional. Always distributes default route information (will continue to advertise default route information even if that information has been removed from the routing table for some reason). This option is disabled by default.
metric <0-16777214>	This is a recursive parameter and can be optionally configured along with the metric-type option. metric <0-16777214> – Optional. Specifies OSPF metric value for redistributed routes (this value is used to generate the default route) <0-16777214> – Specify a value from 0 - 16777214.
metric-type [1\|2]	This is a recursive parameter and can be optionally configured along with the metric option. metric-type [1\|2] – Optional. Sets OSPF exterior metric type for redistributed routes (this information is advertised with the OSPF routing domain) 1 – Sets OSPF external type 1 metrics 2 – Sets OSPF external type 2 metrics
