ifmetric - An IPv4 route metrics manipulation tool
Contents
Description
ifmetric is a Linux tool for setting the metrics of all IPv4 routes attached to a given network interface
at once. This may be used to change the priority of routing IPv4 traffic over the interface. Lower
metrics correlate with higher priorities.
ifmetric uses the Linux NETLINK interface to manipulate the routes. Because of that it is compatible with
routes created with the new iproute2 utility.
