When adding a metric explicitly, ip accepts the route. (nice work-around) But it also shows up as $ 192.168.1.0/20 dev eth1 scope link metric 10
While with 'route' it always uses metric 0 by default. For multihomed systems this makes sense because 192.168.1.33 for example, could be a different system on two different networks. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
