transition

Allows you to generate both old-style and new-style TLVs. The metric range is from 0 to 63.

wide

Allows you to generate and accept only new-style TLVs. The metric range is from 0 to 16777215.

level-1

If you enter the metric-style wide command, the Dell EMC Networking OS generates and accepts only new-style TLVs. The router uses less memory and other resources rather than generating both old-style and new-style TLVs.

The new-style TLVs have wider metric fields than old-style TLVs.

When wide transition is configured, narrow metric is sent for the narrow metric TLV and the actual wide metric is sent in wide metric TLV. The receiver can choose to use the metric that is requires.​
