ipv6 rip interface metric
Configures the RIPng metric or cost for a specified interface. You can set priorities for routes generated by
a switch by assigning a metric value to routes generated by that switch’s RIPng interface. For example,
routes generated by a neighboring switch may have a hop count of 1. However, you can lower the priority
of routes generated by that switch by increasing the metric value for routes generated by the RIPng inter-
face.
