Route policy

A route policy is used to match some attributes with given routing information and the attributes of the
information will be set if the conditions are satisfied.

A route policy can comprise multiple nodes. Each node is a unit for matching test, and the nodes will be
matched in ascending order of their node numbers. Each node comprises a set of if-match and apply
clauses. The if-match clauses define the matching rules. The matching objects are some attributes of
routing information. The relationship among the if-match clauses for a node is “AND”. As a result, a
matching test against a node is successful only when all the matching conditions specified by the

if-match

clauses in the node are satisfied. The apply clauses specify the actions performed after a

matching test against the node is successful, and the actions can be the attribute settings of routing
information.

There is an OR relationship between different nodes in a route policy. As a result, the system examines
the nodes in the route policy in sequence, and once the route matches a node in the route policy, it will
pass the matching test of the route policy without entering the test of the next node.

Route Policy Configuration

A route policy is used to match given routing information or some attributes of routing information and
change the attributes of the routing information if the conditions are met. The above-mentioned filtering
lists can serve as the match conditions:

A route policy can comprise multiple nodes and each node comprises:

z

if-match

clause: Defines matching rules; that is, the filtering conditions that the routing information

should satisfy for passing the current route policy. The matching objects are some attributes of the
routing information.

z

apply

clause: Specifies actions, which are the configuration commands executed after a route

satisfies the filtering conditions specified by the if-match clause. Thereby, some attributes of the
route can be modified.

Configuration Prerequisites

Before configuring a route policy, perform the following tasks:

z

Configuring a filtering list,

z

Configuring a routing protocol

Prepare the following data before the configuration:

z

Route policy name and node number
