Important Considerations

Your system has one unified IP routing table. Route policies enable you
to control the flow of routing information between the network, the
protocols, and the unified routing table on your system.

Route policies are classified as follows:

Import policies import routing information from what RIP learns
from a router/neighbor to the unified routing table. (You can also
import routing information from Open Shortest Path First (OSPF).)

Export policies send information from the routing table to RIP and
RIP routers, which controls what is going out on the wire to the RIP
domain. (You can also export from the routing table to OSPF.)

The system tracks policies that you define in both RIP and OSPF, so the
indexes that are assigned to your policies may have gaps (for example,
if you have RIP policies 1 and 2 and OSPF policies 3-6, the next policy
that is available for RIP or OSPF is 7).
