Set the metric for the routes to the ipsecX or mastX interface. This makes it
possible to do host failover from another interface to ipsec using
route management. This value is passed to the _updown scripts as
PLUTO_METRIC. This option is only available with KLIPS or MAST on Linux.

Acceptable values are positive numbers, with the default being <emphasis remap='B'>1</emphasis>.
