The problem is I need to know if there is a tool or set of guidelines to
determine the proper path cost and priorities in an OSPF network so that
when a link goes down the next best route is chosen.

Basically, what is the fastest link in your network? Let's say you
have a GigE link. You'll set that cost to 1. Let's say you have a
backup link that is a licensed 18GHz link that runs 350 Mbps. You
would make that cost a 3. Then, you have a half-duplex Ubiquiti link.
Normally you would
Can someone explain, in plain English, the difference between type 1 and
type 2 calculations? Mikortik only explains it is white box vs something
else. Cisco says A type 1 route has a metric that is the
sum of the internal OSPF cost and the external redistributed cost. A type 2
route has a

What is the largest value you can put in for an OSPF cost? I'd almost
recommend multiplying all of those numbers by 10 so you can do the fine
level tweaking between the links.

Does any one have a tool or guidelines for setting cost and priority on
OSPF interfaces?
We had a link go down today. OSPF did what it should, but it did not
move to the preferred alternate route. I got it there by changing some
costs, but I need a way to get it right without needing a
This is too general of a question to answer. What exactly was the
