This object sets the default metric applied to routes redistributed into BGP on this virtual router, with -1 meaning no default metric has been configured. Administrators configure this when redistributing routes from other protocols into BGP without individually setting a metric for each, controlling how those routes compare against natively learned BGP routes. For example, an engineer sets csBgpGenDefaultMetric to 100 so that static routes redistributed into BGP on this VR carry a consistent, predictable metric rather than defaulting to unconfigured behavior.
