spbm cost

Use spbm cost to set an interface-specific SPBM link metric value for an interface.

Use undo spbm cost to restore the default.

Syntax

spbm cost value

undo spbm cost

Default

SPBM automatically calculates link metric values for interfaces.

Views

Layer 2 Ethernet interface view, Layer 2 aggregate interface view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

value: Specifies a link metric value in the range of 1 to 16777215. If the link metric is set to 16777215, the link will not be used for transmitting data traffic even if the adjacency is up.

Usage guidelines

The following methods are available for you to assign a link metric value to an interface:

• Setting an interface-specific value in interface view.

• Setting a global value in SPBM view. This global value applies to all SPBM-enabled interfaces.

• Setting a bandwidth reference for the system to calculate a value automatically for the interface.

The system chooses a link metric value for an interface in order of interface-specific value, global value, and autocalculated value.

Examples

# Set the SPBM link metric to 5 on FortyGigE 1/0/1.

<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface fortygige 1/0/1
[Sysname-FortyGigE1/0/1] spbm cost 5
