OK I see your point; if the dns metric is equal for the name servers
the interface metric
is used as extra sorting criteria.
I would definitely like to define a dns metric parameter as you don't
need to define an
interface metric if you make use of seperate routing tables.
On existing configs using interface metrics this could to a change in
behavior as the DNS
server order can be changed when upgrading; this is acceptable ?
