set the metric field in the routing table (used by routing daemons) to \fIM\fR. If this option is not specified the metric for inet6 (IPv6) address family defaults to '1', for inet (IPv4) no metric will be set to (and the kernel defaults to 1024). You should always specify an explicit metric value to not rely on those defaults.
