I edited my question including sufficient details.



Let $X$ be a metrizable topological vector space and $X^*$ be its dual space. Let $C$ be a collection of all bounded subsets of $X$, the topology $T$ on $X^*$ is generated by the family of seminorms of the form:
$$||phi||_A=sup_{xin A}|phi(x)|$$
where $phi$ is a continuous linear functional on $V$ and $A$ runs over the class $C$. Under what condition the dual $X^*$ is metrizable?

    For any locally convex and metrizable space $X$, its dual space is metrizable if and only if $X$ is normable. See also here.
