Correct answer: set metric `<value>`.
Why this is the answer
When redistributing routes into OSPF, the set metric <value clause within a route-map directly controls the metric assigned to the redistributed routes. This metric becomes the external LSA metric (Type 1 or Type 2) in OSPF, influencing path selection for routes learned via redistribution. set ip next-hop <address modifies the next-hop attribute of a route, but not its metric. set local-preference <value is a BGP attribute and has no relevance to OSPF redistribution metrics. set community <value is also a BGP attribute used for tagging routes and does not affect OSPF metrics.
