Metric Manipulation in OSPF to RIP

Hello,

Reference to book page 238 first two lines.

When i see 10.0.5.0/24 network on R6 and R7 router metric is 14 while i see it on RIP router it turn out to be metric 2. Can anyone guide me metric calculation of OSPF redistribution to RIP?

Regards

RIP metric is hop count.. Reference JNCIA/CCNA books for this.

The metric from OSPF does not translate into the metric on RIP. Basically the metric is reset when it is redistributed into RIP.

Thanks for your reply for my understanding while redistribution the metric value is reset.

Well you could actually not say reset.. But since the connection to R6 to the external routers is using RIP to communicate routes... Rip metric is used..

yea, reset probably isn't the best way to think of it. But instead different metrics are used.
