Thanks Weedy,
Under ifconfig it says :
metric N
This parameter sets the interface metric. It is not available under GNU/Linux.
under ip :
metric NUMBER
preference NUMBER
the preference value of the route. NUMBER is an arbitrary 32bit number.
I still don't understand how it gets used and if we don't set it what will
happen?
Thanks for the help,
Farid

Look up metric in the ifconfig or IP man pages.
It's a interface priority.
