RIP metric of 0 means it's a directly connected route. Valid metrics are 1 - 15, with 16 used as "dead".

Is this valid? I thought each RIP router sends a metric of atleast 1, which is also what the RIP RFC seems to suggest. Has anyone ever come across such a scenario, i.e seeing RIP routes with metric 0? Thanks, Kent
