How to get the current,real value of an automatic assign network metric ?

[Peter Hanke]

Ok, I enabled automatic metric feature for 2 NICs on my laptop. So a value is
assigned depending on the specific environments. I could calculate this metric value
by consulting documentation of Microsoft.

But I want to verify this calculated metric value.

Is there a way to find out the real currently assigned value?

Open a command prompt window (Start | Run | cmd) and type this
command:

route print

The metric will appear on the lines that show the default routes
(0.0.0.0) and the subnet routes, which start with the NIC's subnet
address (typically 192.168.0.x on a home network).
