ibmvPortCfgMetric

Administrator defined value for port metric.  This value
overrides the metric which is used by the IBM 6611 to make
routing decisions.  If no response is provided to this parameter,
the IBM 6611 will use defaults contained within the MPNP program.
These defaults are based on values assigned by Banyan Systems for
its VINES servers.
The port metric is a rough estimate of the round trip delay for a
maximum sized VINES IP packet to travel to any neighbor on this
port.  The unit for the metric value is 200 milliseconds.  The
default metric for an Ethernet port is 2.  The default metric for a
Token-Ring is determined by the response to the Token-Ring
Data Rate parameter.  The default metric for a serial port is
determined by the response to the Serial-Line Speed parameter.
