Any updates on this? We're still getting reports of issues from users
where we have two VPN endpoints each pushing routes with different
metrics for preferred routes / path.

We've had to work around this with smaller prefixes.

Title:
  metrics on pushed routes not applied

Status in NetworkManager-OpenVPN:
  Expired
Status in network-manager-openvpn package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  We have a couple of VPN endpoints located in different places.  These
  each provide access to a bunch of things located in both places.  We
  decided that it would be a good idea to let people connect to both
  endpoints so that by adjusting the metrics on the pushed routes (we
  used 500 and 1000) our users would always use the shortest available
  path.

  This works great with vanilla openvpn, but when using network-manager-
  openvpn, the metrics are lost and instead "50" is used, which means
  that only one gateway is used.  Ideally network-manager-openvpn would
  use the supplied metrics so that traffic is routed as intended.

  This seems to affect network-manager-openvpn in releases of Ubuntu up
  to 18.04 LTS, and possibly beyond.
