  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# end-policy

apply

To execute a parameterized or unparameterized policy from within another policy, use the apply command in route-policy configuration mode.

apply policy_name [ argument1, argument2, . . . , argumentN ]

Syntax Description

policy_name	Name of a route policy.
argument	(Optional) Parameter name. The argument can be a value (for example, '100' ) or a parameter (for example, '$parameter')

Command Default

No default behavior or values

Command Modes

Route-policy configuration

Command History

Release	Modification
Release 3.2	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the apply command to execute a policy (either parameterized or unparameterized) from within another policy, which allows for the reuse of common blocks of policy.

Task ID

Task ID	Operations
route-policy	read, write

Examples

In the following example, the policy CustomerIn applies the route-policy SetLocalPref to conditionally set the local preference on a route. The parameters 20, 30, 40, and 50 are passed to the parameterized policy SetLocalPref, where the local preference is set to:

• 20, if the community 217:20 is present in the route
• 30, if the community 217:30 is present in the route
• 40, if the community 217:40 is present in the route
• 50, if the community 217:50 is present in the route

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# route-policy SetLocalPref ($lp0, $lp1, $lp2, $lp3, $lp4)
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if community matches-any ($lp0:$lp1)then
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-elseif)# set local-preference $lp1
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-elseif)# elseif community matches-any ($lp0:$lp2) then
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-elseif)# set local-preference $lp2
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-elseif)# elseif community matches-any ($lp0:$lp3) then
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-elseif)# set local-preference $lp3
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-elseif)# elseif community matches-any ($lp0:$lp4) then
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-elseif)# set local-preference $lp4
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-elseif)# endif
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# end-policy

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# route-policy CustomerIn($cust)
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# apply SetLocalPref ($cust, 20, 30, 40, 50) 
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# end-policy

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# route-policy Cust_217
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# apply CustomerIn(217)
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# end-policy

as-path in

To match the AS path of a route to an AS path set, use the as-path in command in route-policy configuration mode.

as-path in { as-path-set-name | inline-as-path-set | parameter }

Syntax Description

as-path-set-name	Name of an AS path set.
inline-as-path-set	Inline AS path set. The inline AS path set must be enclosed in parentheses.
parameter	Parameter name. The parameter name must be preceded with a “$.”

Command Default

No default behavior or values

Command Modes

Route-policy configuration

Command History

Release	Modification
Release 3.2	This command was introduced.
Release 3.4.0	The parameter argument was added.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the as-path in command as a conditional expression within an if statement to match the AS path of a route to an AS path set. The AS path is a sequence of autonomous system numbers traversed by a route.

Note	For a list of all conditional expressions available within an if statement, see the if command.

The as-path in command evaluates to true if at least one of the regular expressions defined in the associated AS path set matches the AS path attribute of the route.

In the case where the AS path set is defined but contains no elements in it, the as-path in conditional expression command returns false.

Task ID

Task ID	Operations
route-policy	read, write

Examples

For example, assume we have an AS path set named my-as-set defined as follows:

  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# as-path-set my-as-set
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-as)# ios-regex '_12$',
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-as)# ios-regex '_13$'
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-as)# end-set

and the following policy excerpt using an as-path-set-name argument:

  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if as-path in my-as-set then
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# set local-preference 100
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# endif
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)#
  
  

The AS path in condition evaluates to true if one or more of the regular expression matches in the set my-as-set match the AS path associated with the route. In the case of a defined but empty AS path set, this operator returns false.

The preceding policy excerpt is equivalent to the following version, which uses an inline-as-path set variable:

  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if as-path in (ios-regex ‘_12$,ios-regex ‘_13$’) then
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# set local-preference 100
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# endif
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)#

as-path is-local

To determine if this router or another router within this autonomous system or confederation originated a Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) route, use the as-path is-local command in route-policy configuration mode.

as-path is-local

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Command Default

No default behavior or values

Command Modes

Route-policy configuration

Command History

Release	Modification
Release 3.2	This command was supported.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the as-path is-local command as a conditional expression within an if statement to determine if this router (or another router within this autonomous system or confederation) originated the route.

Note	For a list of all conditional expressions available within an if statement, see the if command.

Routes that are locally originated within the autonomous system or confederation carry an empty AS path. For the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) specification, when a route is advertised across the autonomous system boundary or a confederation boundary, the local autonomous system number or confederation ID is appended to the autonomous system path. The AS path of a locally originated aggregate is also empty unless it has been modified by policy.

The is-local operator evaluates to true for autonomous system paths that are empty. An empty AS path is how an AS path that is local to our autonomous system is represented in BGP.

Task ID

Task ID	Operations
route-policy	read, write

Examples

In the following example, if the AS path is local, then the local preference is set to 100:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if as-path is-local then
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# set local-preference 100
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# endif
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)#

as-path length

To compare the number of ASN in the AS path of a Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) route, use the as-path length command in route-policy configuration mode.

as-path length { eq | is | ge | le } { number | parameter }

Syntax Description

eq | is | ge | le	Equal to; greater than or equal to; less than or equal to.
number	Value assigned to an 11-bit unsigned integer. Range is from 0 to 2047.
parameter	Parameter name. The parameter name must be preceded with a “$.”

Command Default

No default behavior or values

Command Modes

Route-policy configuration

Command History

Release	Modification
Release 3.2	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the as-path length command as a conditional expression within an if statement to perform a conditional check based on the length of the AS path.

Note	For a list of all conditional expressions available within an if statement, see the if command.

This command takes either a specific integer value or a range of integer values specified with the ge and le operators. Any or all these integers can be parameterized. The operator counts one for each autonomous system in the path. In the case where the route may be aggregated and contain one or more AS sets, the length operator adds one for each set present, the occurrence of an AS set typically indicates that this route is an aggregated route, and the aggregated route had a component route that contained one of the autonomous systems in the set. Likewise, in the case of confederations, a count of one is added for each confederation in the path or each confederation set in the path. A null AS path has a length of zero.

Task ID

Task ID	Operations
route-policy	read, write

Examples

In the following example, if the AS path length equals 10, then the local preference is set to 100:

  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if as-path length eq 10 then
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# set local-preference 100
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# endif
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)#
  

Related Commands

Command	Description
as-path in	Matches the AS path of a route to an AS path set.
as-path originates-from	Compares an AS path against the AS sequence beginning with the AS number that originated a route
as-path passes-through	Verifies if the supplied integer or parameter appears anywhere in the AS path or if the supplied sequence of integers and parameters appears, in the same order, anywhere in the AS path.
as-path unique-length	Performs specific checks based on the length of the AS path.

as-path neighbor-is

To test autonomous system numbers at the head of the AS path against a sequence of one or more values or parameters, use the as-path neighbor-is command in route-policy configuration mode.

as-path neighbor-is as-number-list [ exact ]

Syntax Description

as-number-list	Numbers or parameters, enclosed in single quotation marks, that represent a sequence of autonomous system numbers. Range for 2-byte Autonomous system numbers (ASNs) is 1 to 65535. Range for 4-byte Autonomous system numbers (ASNs) in asplain format is 1 to 4294967295. Range for 4-byte Autonomous system numbers (ASNs) is asdot format is 1.0 to 65535.65535.
exact	(Optional) Specifies that with the exact keyword, the as-number-list value must identically match the AS path for the route; without the exact keyword, any element in the as-number-list argument matches one or more occurrences of that element in the AS path for the route.

Command Default

No default behavior or values

Command Modes

Route-policy configuration

Command History

Release	Modification
Release 3.2	This command was introduced.
Release 3.4.0	The as-number-list 4-byte number range 1.0 to 65535.65535 was supported.
Release 3.9.0	Asplain format for 4-byte Autonomous system numbers notation was supported.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the as-path neighbor-is command as a conditional expression within an if statement to test the autonomous system number or numbers at the head of the AS path against a sequence of one or more integral values or parameters. In other words, to test to learn if the sequence of autonomous system numbers matches the path beginning with the neighboring autonomous system from which this route was heard.

Note	For a list of all conditional expressions available within an if statement, see the if command.

This command has an equivalent regular expression (ios-regex). For example, AS path neighbor-is ‘1’ would be ‘^1_’.

Task ID

Task ID	Operations
route-policy	read, write

Examples

The following are incomplete configuration examples:

  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if as-path neighbor-is '10' then 
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# if as-path neighbor-is '$asnum' then 
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# if as-path neighbor-is '10 20' then 

These statements evaluate to true when the first autonomous system numbers on the AS path match, in the same order, the supplied parameters or integer values in the neighbor-is statement. If the neighboring autonomous system location happens to be an AS-set, the operator evaluates to true if the corresponding argument to the neighbor-is operator is an element of the AS-set.

Without the exact keyword, repeated autonomous system numbers in the AS path are ignored. For example,

  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if as-path neighbor-is '10 20' then

matches an AS path beginning

  10 10 10 20 ...
  
  

and an AS path beginning:

  10 20 ....
  
  

With the exact keyword, repetitions are not ignored, therefore

  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if as-path neighbor-is '10 20' exact then

matches the second of these AS paths but not the first.

Related Commands

Command	Description
as-path in	Matches the AS path of a route to an AS path set.
as-path length	Compares the number of ASN in the AS path of a route.
as-path originates-from	Compares an AS path to the AS sequence beginning with the AS number that originated a route.
as-path passes-through	Verifies if the supplied integer or parameter appears anywhere in the AS path or if the supplied sequence of integers and parameters appears, in the same order, anywhere in the AS path.
as-path unique-length	Performs specific checks based on the length of the AS path.

as-path originates-from

To compare an AS path against the AS sequence beginning with the AS number that originated a route, use the as-path originates-from command in route-policy configuration mode.

as-path originates-from as-number-list [ exact ]

Syntax Description

as-number-list	Numbers or parameters, enclosed in single quotation marks, that represent a sequence of autonomous system numbers. Range for 2-byte Autonomous system numbers (ASNs) is 1 to 65535. Range for 4-byte Autonomous system numbers (ASNs) in asplain format is 1 to 4294967295. Range for 4-byte Autonomous system numbers (ASNs) is asdot format is 1.0 to 65535.65535.
exact	(Optional) Specifies that with the exact keyword, the as-number-list value must identically match the AS path for the route; without the exact keyword, any element in the as-number-list argument matches one or more occurrences of that element in the AS path for the route.

Command Default

No default behavior or values

Command Modes

Route-policy configuration

Command History

Release	Modification
Release 3.2	This command was introduced.
Release 3.4.0	The as-number-list 4-byte number range 1.0 to 65535.65535 was supported.
Release 3.9.0	Asplain format for 4-byte Autonomous system numbers notation was supported.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the as-path originates-from command as a conditional expression within an if statement to compare an AS path to the autonomous system sequence.

Note	For a list of all conditional expressions available within an if statement, see the if command.

The originates-from operator is similar to the neighbor-is operator, except that it looks at the autonomous system number at the opposite end of the AS path. In other words, it is comparing to the autonomous system that originated the route. It can take numbers or parameters, enclosed in single quotation marks, that represent a sequence of autonomous system numbers. When more than one number is specified in the list, the sequence of autonomous system numbers listed must appear as a subsequence in the AS path, with the last number corresponding to the autonomous system that originated the route.

Task ID

Task ID	Operations
route-policy	read, write

Examples

The following are incomplete configuration examples:

  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if as-path originates-from '10 11' then 
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# if as-path originates-from '$asnum 11' then 

The first line of the preceding example evaluates to true if autonomous system 11 originated the route and then advertised it to autonomous system 10, from which the route was eventually propagated to us. In the case where the route has been aggregated, and the location of the originating autonomous system contains an AS-set, the originates-from operator evaluates to true if the argument to the originates-from operator is contained in the AS-set.

Without the exact keyword, repeated autonomous system numbers in the AS path are ignored. For example,

  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if as-path originates-from '10 11' then

matches an autonomous system path ending

  ...10 10 10 11
  
  

and an autonomous system path ending

  ...10 11
  
  

With the exact keyword, repetitions are not ignored, therefore

  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if as-path originates-from '10 11' exact then

matches the second of these autonomous system paths but not the first.

as-path passes-through

To verify if the supplied integer or parameter appears anywhere in the AS path or if the supplied sequence of integers and parameters appears, in the same order, anywhere in the AS path, use the as-path passes-through command in route-policy configuration mode.

as-path passes-through as-number-list [ exact ]

Syntax Description

as-number-list	Numbers or parameters, enclosed in single quotation marks, that represent a sequence of autonomous system numbers. Range for 2-byte Autonomous system numbers (ASNs) is 1 to 65535. Range for 4-byte Autonomous system numbers (ASNs) in asplain format is 1 to 4294967295. Range for 4-byte Autonomous system numbers (ASNs) is asdot format is 1.0 to 65535.65535.
exact	(Optional) Specifies that with the exact keyword, the as-number-list value must identically match the AS path for the route; without the exact keyword, any element in the as-number-list argument matches one or more occurrences of that element in the AS path for the route.

Command Default

Release	Modification
Release 3.2	This command was introduced.
Release 3.4.0	The as-number-list 4-byte number range 1.0 to 65535.65535 was supported.
Release 3.9.0	Asplain format for 4-byte Autonomous system numbers notation was supported.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the as-path passes-through command as a conditional expression within an if statement to verify if the specified integer or parameter appears anywhere in the AS path or if the sequence of integers and parameters appears.

Note	For a list of all conditional expressions available within an if statement, see the if command.

The passes-through operator takes a sequence of integers or parameters, enclosed in single quotation marks, as an argument. It can also take a single integer or parameter as an argument. It evaluates to true if the supplied integer or parameter appears anywhere in the AS path, or if the supplied sequence of integers and parameters appears, in the same order, anywhere in the AS path. This includes the originates-from or neighbor-is location in the AS path.

Examples

The following are incomplete configuration examples:

  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if as-path passes-through '10' then 
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# if as-path passes-through '$asnum' then 
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# if as-path passes-through '10 11' then 
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# if as-path passes-through '10 $asnum 12' then 

Without the exact keyword, repeated autonomous system numbers in the AS path are ignored. For example:

  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if as-path passes-through '9 10 11' then

matches an AS path containing

  ...9 10 10 10 11 ....
  
  

and an AS path containing:

  ...9 10 11...
  
  

With the exact keyword, repetitions are not ignored. Therefore:

  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if as-path passes-through '9 10 11' exact then

matches the second of these AS paths but not the first.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the as-path-set command to create a named AS path set.

An AS path set comprises operations for matching an AS path attribute.

This command enters AS path set configuration mode, in which you can use the ios-regexkeyword to indicate the type of regular expression. Single quotation marks are required around the regular expression.

The inline set form is a parenthesized list of comma-separated expressions.

See the “Understanding Regular Expressions, Special Characters and Patterns” appendix in the Cisco IOS XR Getting Started Guide for the Cisco XR 12000 Series Router for information about forming regular expressions.

Examples

The following is a sample definition of an AS path set named aset1:

  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# as-path-set aset1
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-as)# ios-regex '_42$',
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-as)# ios-regex '_127$'
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-as)# end-set

 

This AS path set is composed of two elements. When used in a matching operation, this AS path set matches any route whose AS path ends with either the autonomous system number 42 or 127.

The following is a sample of an inline set:

  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if as-path in (ios-regex '_42$', ios-regex$ '_127$')
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# pass 
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# endif 
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)#
  

as-path unique-length

To perform specific checks based on the length of the AS path (match against the number of unique ASNs in the AS path), use the as-path unique-length command in route-policy configuration mode.

as-path unique-length { eq | is | ge | le } { number | parameter }

Syntax Description

eq | is | ge | le	Equal to; greater than or equal to; less than or equal to.
number	Value assigned to an 11-bit unsigned integer. Range is from 0 to 2047.
parameter	Parameter name. The parameter name must be preceded with a “$.”

Command Default

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the as-path unique-length command as a conditional expression within an if statement to perform a match based on the length of the AS path.

Note	For a list of all conditional expressions available within an if statement, see the if command.

The unique-length operator is similar to the length operator, except that when an AS path has been padded with the same autonomous system number multiple times, the operator counts only one when the route is padded. Therefore, given an AS path of 333 333 111 222 123 444 444 444, the unique-length operator would return a value of 5, whereas the length operator would return a value of 8.

Use the community matches-any command as a conditional expression within an if statement to match any element of a community set.

Note	For a list of all conditional expressions available within an if statement, see the if command.

A simple condition using the matches-any operator evaluates as true if at least one community element of the community attribute for the route matches an element in the community set operand. If no community in the route matches any of the specifications in the named or inline set, then the condition evaluates to false. Likewise, when there is no community at all in the route, the condition evaluates to false.

Matching of a community in the route to a specification in a named or an inline set is intuitive. If the community specification in a set is the familiar colon-separated decimal 16-bit numbers specification, or one of the well-known communities, the community matches the specification if the specification denotes the same 32-bit number as that in the route. If the community specification uses a wildcard, then the community in the route matches if it is one of the many communities denoted by the wildcard specification. In inline sets, community specifications may be parameterized, in which case the relevant matching is done when the value of the parameter has been supplied.

Communities may also be matched using range and regular expression operators. Range specifications are entered as follows: [ low-value .. high-value ]. Either or both colon-separated halves of a community value may contain a range. The following are valid range specifications:

  10:[100..1000]
  [10..100]:80
  [10..100]:[100..2000]
  
  

In addition, the private-as keyword may be used to specify the range from 64512 to 65534. Regular expressions are specified as the ios-regex keyword followed by a valid regular expression string.

Community values from the route are matched one at a time to the match specifications. Therefore, regex match specifications are expected to represent one individual community value and not a sequence of community values.

Task ID

Examples

In the following example, a named community set called my-community-set and a route policy called community-matches-any-example are created. The policy sets the local-preference to 100 for any route that has one or more of the communities in the my-community-set community set. If the route does not have any of these communities, the policy checks whether it has any communities whose first half is in the range from 10 to 25 and whose second half is the value 35, in which case it sets the local-preference to 200. Otherwise, it checks for a community value in the range of 30:100 to 30:500, in which case it sets the local-preference to 300.

  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# community-set my-community-set
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-comm)# 10:20,
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-comm)# 10:30,

Use the community matches-every command as a conditional expression within an if statement to match every element of a community set.

Note	For a list of all conditional expressions available within an if statement, see the if command.

A simple condition using the matches-every operator evaluates as true if every specification in the named set or inline set specified matches at least one community value in the route. If any community specification in the named or inline set is not matched, then the operation evaluates to false.

Matching of a community in the route to a specification in a named or an inline set is intuitive. If the community-specification in a set is the familiar colon-separated decimal 16-bit numbers specification, or one of the well-known communities, the community matches the specification if the specification denotes the same 32-bit number as that in the route. If the community specification uses a wildcard, then the community in the route matches if it is one of the many communities denoted by the wildcard specification. In inline sets, community specifications may be parameterized, in which case the relevant matching is done when the value of the parameter has been supplied.

Communities may also be matched using range and regular expression operators. Range specifications are entered as follows: [ low-value .. high-value ]. Either or both colon-separated halves of a community value may contain a range. The following are valid range specifications:

  10:[100..1000]
  [10..100]:80
  [10..100]:[100..2000]
  
  

Therefore, a matches-every operation with two community range specifications means that a community must be present in the route that corresponds to each range. For example, in the following statement:

  if community matches-every (10:[100..200],20:[100..200]) then
  
  

the statement evaluates as true if one or more communities in the route lie in the range 10:[100.200] and one or more communities in the route lie in the range 20:[100..200].

In addition, the private-as keyword may be used to specify the range from 64512 to 65534.

Regular expressions are specified as the ios-regex keyword followed by a valid single-quoted regular expression string. Community values from the route are matched one at a time against the match specifications. Therefore, regex match specifications are expected to represent one individual community value and not a sequence of community values.

In the following example, the route policy named community-matches-every-example sets the local-preference value to 100 for all routes that have all three communities in the my-community-set community set. Routes that do not have all three communities but have a community that matches the first regular expression match have the local-preference value set to 200. Finally, any remaining routes that match the last regular expression have the local-preference values set to 300.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Regular expressions and ranges can be specified in a community set to support the matching or deleting of communities using ranges or regular expressions in named community sets. An attempt to use a community set that contains a range or regular expression to set a community value is rejected when an attempt to attach such a policy is made.

A community set holds community values for matching against the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) community attribute. A community is a 32-bit quantity. For notational convenience, each community value must be split in half and expressed as two unsigned decimal integers in the range from 0 to 65535, separated by a colon.

The inline form of a community set also supports parameterization. Each 16-bit portion of the community may be parameterized.

The routing policy language (RPL) provides symbolic names for the standard well-known community values: internet is 0:0, no-export is 65535:65281, no-advertise is 65535:65282, and local-as is 65535:65283.

RPL also provides a facility for using wildcards in community specifications. A wildcard is specified by inserting an asterisk (*) in place of one of the 16-bit portions of the community specification, which indicates that any value for that portion of the community matches.

Every community set must contain at least one community value. An empty community set is invalid and the policy configuration system rejects it.

This command takes either a named prefix set or an inline prefix set value as an argument. The condition returns true if the destination entry matches any entry in the prefix set or inline prefix set. An attempt to match a destination using a prefix set that is defined but contains no elements returns false.

The routing policy language (RPL) provides the ability to test destinations for a match to a list of prefix match specifications using the in operator. The destination in command is protocol-independent.

In Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), the destination of a route is also known as its network-layer reachability information (NLRI). It comprises a prefix value and a mask length.

RPL supports both 32-bit IPv4 prefixes, specified in dotted-decimal format, and 128-bit IPv6 prefixes, specified in colon-separated hexadecimal format.

Examples

In the following example, a prefix set named my-prefix-set is defined and a route policy named use-destination-in is created. Within the use-destination-in route policy, the destination in command is used within an if statement to learn if the destination is in the prefix-set named my-prefix-set. If it is, then local preference is set to 100. If it is not in my-prefix-set but does match the next prefix specifications, then local preference is set to 200.

  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# prefix-set my-prefix-set
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-pfx)# 10.0.0.1/32,
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-pfx)# fe80::203:0:0:0/64,
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-pfx)# 10.0.0.2/24 le 32

  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-elseif)# endif
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# end-policy

In the following example, a prefix set named ipv6-prefix-set is defined and a route policy named ipv6-destination-in is created. Within the ipv6-destination-in route policy, the destination in command is used within an if statement to learn if the destination is in the prefix-set named ipv6-prefix-set. If it is, then the next-hop is set to 2001:abcd:fedc::1. If it is not in ipv6-prefix-set but does match the next prefix specifications, then the next-hop is set to 1111:2222:3333:4444:5555:6666:7777:8888.

Command History

Release	Modification
Release 3.5.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the done command to stop executing the policy and accept the route.

Note	The done command can be used as an action statement within an if statement. For a list of all action statements available within an if statement, see the if command.

When encountering a done statement the route is passed and no further policy statements are executed. All modifications made to the route prior to the done statement are still valid.

Note

The default action of a route policy is to drop or discard any routes that have not been either explicitly passed or for which no attempt has been made to modify with an action. The routing policy language (RPL) does not have specific “match clauses,” which means the default drop behavior is controlled by whether a route has been explicitly passed or an attempt has been to modify the route using an action statement.

Examples

In the following example, if the destination match succeeds for 29.0.0.0/8 le 32, the execution continues past set community 102:12 and onto the next statement. If the destination match succeeds for 39.0.0.0/8 le 32 execution, then the policy execution stops when in encounters the done statement.

  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# route-policy done_st_example
  RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if destination in (29.0.0.0/8 le 32) then

drop

To discard a route, use the drop command in route-policy configuration mode.

drop

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Command History

Release	Modification
Release 3.2	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the drop command within a route policy to drop a route.

Note	The drop command can be used as an action statement within an if statement. For a list of all action statements available within an if statement, see the if command.

This command causes the route to be dropped. After a route is dropped, no further execution of policy occurs. Therefore, if after executing the first two statements of a policy the drop statement is encountered, the route is discarded and execution stops immediately even when the policy contains further statements.

Note

The default action of a route policy is to drop or discard any routes that have not been either explicitly passed or attempted to be modified with an action. The routing policy language (RPL) does not have specific “match clauses,” which means the default drop behavior is controlled by whether a route has been explicitly passed or an attempt has been to modify the route using an action statement.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the extcommunity rt matches-any command as a conditional expression within an if statement to match elements of an extended community set.

Note	For a list of all conditional expressions available within an if statement, see the if command.

A simple condition using the matches-any operator evaluates as true if at least one extended community in the route matches an extended community specification in the named or inline set. If no extended community in the route matches any of the specifications in the named or inline set, then this simple condition evaluates to false. Likewise, when there is no extended community at all in the route, the condition evaluates to false.

Matching an extended community in the route to a specification in a named or an inline set is intuitive. In inline sets, extended community specifications may be parameterized, in which case the relevant matching is done when the value of the parameter has been supplied.

Examples

In the following example, an extended community set named my-extcommunity-set and a parameterized route-policy named my-extcommunity-set-example($tag,$ip) are defined. The extcommunity rt matches-any command is used in an if statement such that if at least one extended community in the route matches an extended community specification in the named set, then the local preference is set to 100. If there is no extended community in the route that matches any of the specifications in the named set, then the condition evaluates as false and the extended community is compared to the inline extended sets.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the extcommunity rt matches-every command as a conditional expression within an if statement to match every element of an RT extended community set.

Note	For a list of all conditional expressions available within an if statement, see the if command.

A simple condition using the matches-every operator evaluates as true if every extended community value in the extended community attribute for the route matches at least one element of the extended community set or inline set. If no extended community in the route matches any of the specifications in the named or inline set, then this simple condition evaluates to false. Likewise, when there is no extended community at all in the route, the condition evaluates to false.

Matching an extended community in the route to a specification in a named or an inline set is intuitive. In inline sets, extended community specifications may be parameterized, in which case the relevant matching is done when the value of the parameter has been supplied.

In the following example, an extended community set named my-extcommunity-set and a parameterized route policy named extcommunity-matches-every-example ($as, $tag) are defined. The condition extcommunity rt matches-every is used in an if statement in this policy. If it evaluates to true, the local-preference value is set to 100. If it evaluates to false, the extended community is evaluated using an inline set. If that condition evaluates to true, the local-preference value is set to 200. If it evaluates to false, the local-preference value is set to 300.

Use the extcommunity-set cost command to define a cost extended community set.

An extended community set is analogous to a community set except that it contains extended community values instead of regular community values. Extended community values are 64-bit structured values. An extended community set also supports named forms and inline forms.

Cost extended communities can be entered in these formats:

• #-remark ---Remark beginning with '#'

• 0-255---Decimal number

• abort ---Discard RPL definition and return to top level config

• end-set ---End of set definition

• exit ---Exit from the submode

• igp:---Cost Community with IGP as point of insertion

• pre-bestpath: ---Cost Community with Pre-Bestpath as point of insertion

• show ---Show partial RPL configuration

Multiple cost community set clauses can be configured in each route policy block or sequence. Each cost community set clause must have a different ID (0-255). The cost community set clause with the lowest cost-value is preferred by the best path selection process when all other attributes are equal.

As with community sets, the inline form supports parameterization within parameterized policies. Either portion of the extended community value can be parameterized.

Every extended community set must contain at least one extended community value. Empty extended community sets are invalid and the policy configuration system rejects them.

Wildcards (*) and regular expressions are allowed for extended community set elements.

Examples

In the following example, a cost extended community set named extcomm-cost is defined:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# extcommunity-set cost extcomm-cost
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-ext)# IGP:90:914,
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-ext)# Pre-Bestpath:91:915
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-ext)# end-set

Use the extcommunity soo matches-any command as a conditional expression within an if statement to match elements of an extended community set.

Note	For a list of all conditional expressions available within an if statement, see the if command.

A simple condition using the matches-any operator evaluates as true if at least one extended community in the route matches an extended community specification in the named or inline set. If no extended community in the route matches any of the specifications in the named or inline set, then this simple condition evaluates to false. Likewise, when there is no extended community at all in the route, the condition evaluates to false.

Matching an extended community in the route to a specification in a named or an inline set is intuitive. In inline sets, extended community specifications may be parameterized, in which case the relevant matching is done when the value of the parameter has been supplied.

Task ID

Task ID	Operations
route-policy	read, write

Examples

In the following example, an SoO extended community set named extcomm-soo and a parameterized route policy named my-extcommunity-set-example($tag,$ip) are defined.

The condition route policy named extcommunity soo matches-any is used in an if statement in this policy. If it evaluates to true, the local preference value is set to 100.

If it evaluates to false, the SoO extended community is evaluated using an inline set. If it evaluates to true, the local preference value is set to 200.

If it evaluates to false, the SoO extended community is evaluated using a different inline set. If it evaluates to true, the local preference value is set to 300.

If it evaluates to false, the SoO extended community is evaluated using a different inline set. If it evaluates to true, the local preference value is set to 400.

Examples

In the following example, any route whose AS path is in the set as-path-set-1 is dropped:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if as-path in as-path-set-1 then 
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# drop 
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# endif
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)#

The contents of the then clause may be an arbitrary sequence of action statements.

The following example shows an if statement with two action statements:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if origin is igp then 
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# set med 42 
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# prepend as-path 73 5 
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# endif
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)#

The if command also permits an else clause to be executed if the expression is false, as follows:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if med eq 200 then
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# set community (12:34) additive
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# else
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-else)# set community (12:56) additive
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-else)# endif
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)#

The routing policy language (RPL) also provides syntax using the elseif command to string together a sequence of tests, as shown in the following example:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if med eq 150 then
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# set local-preference 10
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# elseif med eq 200 then
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-elseif)# set local-preference 60
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-elseif)# elseif med eq 250 then
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-elseif)# set local-preference 110
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-elseif)# else
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-else)# set local-preference 0
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-else)# endif
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)#

The statements within an if statement may themselves be if statements, as shown in this example:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if community matches-any (12:34, 56:78) then
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# if med eq 150 then
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# drop
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# endif
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# set local-preference 100
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# endif
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)#

The policy configuration shown sets the value of the local preference attribute to 100 on any route that has a community value of 12:34 or 56:78 associated with it. However, if any of these routes has a Multi Exit Descriminator (MED) value of 150, then each route with both the community value of 12:34 or 56:78 and a MED of 150 is dropped.

local-preference

To compare the local-preference attribute of a BGP route to an integer value or a parameterized value, use the local-preference command in route-policy configuration mode.

local-preference { eq | is | ge | le } { number | parameter }

Syntax Description

eq | is | ge | le	Equal to; exact match; greater than or equal to; less than or equal to.
number	Value assigned to a 32-bit unsigned integer. Range is 0 to 4294967295.
parameter	Parameter name. The parameter name must be preceded with a “$.”

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the local- preference command as a conditional expression within an if statement to compare the local-preference attribute to an integer value or a parameterized value.

Note	For a list of all conditional expressions available within an if statement, see the if command.

The MED is a 32-bit unsigned integer. The eq operation compares the local-preference to either a static value or a parameterized value passed to a parameterized policy for equality with that value. A greater than or equal to comparison can also be done with the ge operator, and a less than or equal to comparison can be performed using the le operator.

Examples

The following example shows that if the local-preference is 10, local-preference is set to 100:

RP/0/RSP0RP0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if local-preference eq 10 then 
RP/0/RSP0RP0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# set weight 100
RP/0/RSP0RP0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# endif
RP/0/RSP0RP0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)#

med

To compare the Multi Exit Discriminator (MED) to an integer value or a parameterized value or compare the MED attribute of a BGP route to an integer value, use the med command in route-policy configuration mode.

med { eq | is | ge | le } { number | parameter }

Syntax Description

eq | is | ge | le	Equal to; exact match; greater than or equal to; less than or equal to.
number	Value assigned to a 32-bit unsigned integer. Range is 0 to 4294967295.
parameter	Parameter name. The parameter name must be preceded with a “$.”

Release	Modification
Release 3.3.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the orf prefix in command to match a prefix in a prefix set or an inline prefix set.

This command takes either a named prefix set or an inline prefix set value as an argument. It returns true if the destination NLRI matches any entry in the prefix set. An attempt to match destination using a prefix set that is defined but contains no elements returns false.

This command is used in the context of the orf route-policy attach point in BGP. The destination of a route is also known in Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) as its network-layer reachability information (NLRI). It comprises a prefix value and a mask length. The routing policy language (RPL) provides one operation on prefixes, testing them for matching against a list of prefix-match specifications using the in operator.

Examples

In the following example, the prefix set orfpreset1 and the route policy named orfpolicy are defined. Next, the orfpolicy is applied to the neighbor orf attach point.

If the prefix of the route matches any of the prefixes specified in orfpreset1 (211.105.1.0/24, 211.105.5.0/24, 211.105.11.0/24), then the prefix is dropped. If the prefix matches in(211.105.3.0/24, 211.105.7.0/24, 211.105.13.0/24), then the prefix is accepted. In addition to this inbound filtering, BGP sends these prefix entries to the upstream neighbor indicating a permit or deny so that the neighbor can make the same filter updates.

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# prefix-set orfpreset1
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-pfx)# 211.105.1.0/24,
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-pfx)# 211.105.5.0/24,

Use the policy-global command to define global parameters and enter global parameter configuration mode.

RPL supports the definition of systemwide global parameters that can be used inside a policy definition. The global parameter values can be used directly inside a policy definition similar to the local parameters of parameterized policy. When a parameterized policy has a parameter name “collision” with a global parameter name, parameters local to policy definition take precedence, effectively ‘masking off’ global parameters. In addition, a validation mechanism is in place to prevent the deletion of a particular global parameter if it is referred by any policy. For more information on global parameters and parameterization, see the Implementing Routing Policy on Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router Cisco IOS XR Software module of the Cisco IOS XR Routing Configuration Guide for the Cisco XR 12000 Series Router

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the prefix-set command to enter prefix set configuration mode and define a prefix set.

A prefix set is a comma-separated list of prefix match specifications. It holds IPv4 or IPv6 prefix match specifications, each of which has four parts: an address, a mask length, a minimum matching length, and a maximum matching length. The address is required, but the other three parts are optional. The address is a standard four-part, dotted-decimal numeric IPv4 address or a colon-separated hexadecimal IPv6 address. The mask length, if present, is a nonnegative decimal integer in the range from 0 to 32 for IPv4 prefixes or 0 to 128 for IPv6 prefixes following the address and separated from it by a slash. The optional minimum matching length follows the address and optional mask length and is expressed as the keyword ge (mnemonic for greater than or equal to), followed by a nonnegative decimal integer in the range from 0 to 32 for IPv4 or 0 to 128 for IPv6. The optional maximum matching length follows the rest and is expressed by the keyword le (mnemonic for less than or equal to), followed by yet another nonnegative decimal integer in the range from 0 to 32 for IPv4 or 0 to 128 for IPv6. A syntactic shortcut for specifying an exact length for prefixes to match is the eq keyword, mnemonic for equal to.

If a prefix match specification has no mask length, then the default mask length is 32 for IPv4 or 128 for IPv6. The default minimum matching length is the mask length. If a minimum matching length is specified, then the default maximum matching length must be less than 32 for IPv4 prefixes or 128 for IPv6 prefixes. Otherwise, if neither a minimum nor maximum length is specified, the default maximum length is the mask length.

The following example shows a prefix set named legal-ipv4-prefix-examples:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# prefix-set legal-ipv4-prefix-examples
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-pfx)# 10.0.1.1,
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-pfx)# 10.0.2.0/24,
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-pfx)# 10.0.3.0/24 ge 28,

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-pfx)# 10.0.6.0/24 eq 28
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-pfx)# end-set

The first element of the prefix set matches only one possible value, 10.0.1.1/32 or the host address 10.0.1.1. The second element matches only one possible value, 10.0.2.0/24. The third element matches a range of prefix values, from 10.0.3.0/28 to 10.0.3.255/32. The fourth element matches a range of values, from 10.0.4.0/24 to 10.0.4.240/28. The fifth element matches prefixes in the range from 10.0.5.0/26 to 10.0.5.252/30. The sixth element matches any prefix of length 28 in the range from 10.0.6.0/28 through 10.0.6.240/28.

The following prefix set consists entirely of invalid prefix match specifications:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# prefix-set INVALID-PREFIX-EXAMPLES
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-pfx)# 10.1.1.1 ge 16,
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-pfx)# 10.1.2.1 le 16,
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-pfx)# 10.1.3.0/24 le 23,

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-pfx)# 10.1.5.0/25 ge 29 le 28
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-pfx)# end-set

Neither the minimum length nor the maximum length is legal without a mask length. The maximum length must be at least the mask length. The minimum length must be less than 32, the maximum length of an IPv4 prefix. The maximum length must be equal to or greater than the minimum length.

The following example shows a valid IPv6 prefix set named legal-ipv6-prefix-examples:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# prefix-set legal-ipv6-prefix-examples

The 2-byte value is entered as a 16-bit unsigned decimal value. The range is 0 to 65535. The 4-byte value is entered as two 16-bit unsigned decimal values separated by a period. The range is 1.0 to 65535.65535.
parameter	(Optional) Parameter name. The parameter name must be preceded with a “$.”
private-as	Matches within the BGP private AS range. Range is from 64512 to 65534.

Command Default

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the replace as-path command to replace a sequence of AS numbers or private AS numbers in the AS path with the local AS numbers. For example, if the AS path is ‘67 65534 100 65533 5 78 89 90’ and the local AS number is 900, then:

  replace as-path ‘5 78’ 
  
  

replaces‘5 78’ in the AS path with 900 (from the local AS), and the new path would be‘67 65534 100 65533 900 89 90’.

Consider following statement:

  replace as-path private-as
  
  

Because 65534 and 65533 are within the private AS range, they are replaced with 900. The path is ‘67 900 100 900 5 78 89 90’. The length of the path remains the same.

The replace as-path command can be used as an action statement within an if statement. For a list of all action statements available within an if statement, see the if command.

Caution

The replace as-path command changes the AS path content which can lead to routing loops.

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# replace as-path private-as
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# replace as-path ‘9.9 7.89 14.15 $asnum’
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# replace as-path ‘9 89 14.15 $asnum’

rib-has-route

To check if a route listed in the prefix set exists in the Routing Information Base (RIB), use the rib-has-route command in route-policy configuration mode.

rib-has-route in { prefix-set-name | inline-prefix-set | parameter }

Syntax Description

prefix-set-name	Name of a prefix set.
inline-prefix-set	Inline prefix set. The inline prefix set must be enclosed in parentheses.
parameter	Parameter name. The parameter name must be preceded with a “$.”

Command Default

Command History

Release	Modification
Release 3.2	This command was introduced.
Release 3.4.0	The name argument was removed. The following arguments were added: prefix-set-name inline-prefix-set parameter

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

If routes are active, then they are advertised. Routes are considered active if they are already installed in the Routing Information Base (RIB).

The prefix sets used in the rib-has-route command contain two match specifications. The first is where an exact route match is requested (for example, 10.10.0.0/16 will match exactly one route) and the second is where a route match or any more-specific route match is allowed (for example, 10.10.0.0/16 le 32 will match the 10.10.0.0/16 route and any longer prefix).

Use the rib-has-route command as a conditional expression within an if statement to check if there is an active route with a specific prefix contained in the RIB. If the statement reveals an active route that meets that criteria, additional actions are executed.

For a list of all conditional expressions available within an if statement, see the if command.

Task ID

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# endif
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)#

route-policy (RPL)

To define a route policy and enter route-policy configuration mode, use the route-policy command in global configuration mode. To remove a policy definition, use the no form of this command.

route-policy name [ (parameter1, parameter2, . . . , parameterN) ]

no route-policy name (parameter1, parameter2, . . . , parameterN)

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the route-policy command to define a route policy and enter route-policy configuration mode.

Policy definitions create named bundles of policy statements. A policy definition consists of the route-policy command followed by a name, a group of policy statements, and the end-policy command.

The policy name serves as a handle for binding the policy to protocols.

Task ID

Task ID	Operations
route-policy	read, write

Examples

The following example shows a simple policy named drop-everything that drops any route it encounters:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# route-policy drop-everything
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# drop
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# end-policy

Policies may also refer to other policies such that common blocks of policy can be reused. This reference to other policies is accomplished by using the apply command. The following is a simple example:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# route-policy drop-as-1234
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if as-path passes-through '1234' then
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# apply check-communities
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# else
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-else)# pass
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-else)# endif
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# end-policy

The apply command indicates that the policy check-communities should be executed if the route under consideration passed through autonomous system 1234 before it was received. If so, the communities of the route are checked, and based on the findings the route may be accepted unmodified, accepted with changes, or dropped.

Command	Description
end-policy	Ends the definition of a route policy.

route-type is

To match route types when redistribution is being performed into Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), or Integrated Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (IS-IS), use the route-type is command in route-policy configuration mode.

route-type is { local | interarea | internal | type-1 | type-2 | level-l | level-2 | parameter }

Syntax Description

local	Uses a local value to match locally generated BGP routes.
interarea	Uses an interarea value to match IS-IS interarea routes.
internal	Uses an internal value to match OSPF intra- and interarea routes.
type-1	Uses a Type 1 value to match Type 1 OSPF routes.
type-2	Uses a Type 2 value to match Type 2 OSPF routes.
level-1	Uses a Level 1 value to match Level 1 IS-IS routes.
level-2	Uses a Level 2 value to match Level 2 IS-IS routes.
parameter	Parameter name. The parameter name must be preceded with a “$.”

Command Default

Release	Modification
Release 3.2	This command was introduced.
	The level-1-2 keyword was replaced with the interarea keyword.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the route-type is command as a conditional expression within an if statement to compare route types when redistribution is being performed into BGP, OSPF, or IS-IS.

Note	For a list of all conditional expressions available within an if statement, see the if command.

The valid keywords are local , internal , interarea , type-1 , type-2 , level-1 , and level-2 . A parameterized value that fills in one of these values may also be used. The local value is used to match locally generated BGP routes. The internal value is used to match OSPF intra- and interarea routes. The type-1 and type-2 values are used to match Type 1 and Type 2 OSPF external routes. The level-1 , level-2 , and interarea values are used to match IS-IS routes of those respective types.

Because the route type is a matching operator, it appears in conditional clauses of if and then statements.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the rpl maximum command to configure system limits on the routing policy subsystem. As such, rpl maximum configuration lines do not appear as statements within a routing policy. This command places resource limits on the routing policy subsystem. Use the rpl maximum command to configure the maximum number of lines of configuration and number of policies.

The number of lines of configuration includes the beginning and ending statements , for example, route-policy and end-policy . Each line of configuration for sets is also counted.

A line of configuration is counted only once; it is not counted each time it is used. Similarly, any multiple use of policy in an apply statement counts only as one policy.

A user can change the default values for lines and policies but cannot exceed the maximum value, nor can the value for lines and policies be configured lower than the number of lines or policies that are currently configured.

set community

To set the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) community attributes in a route, use the set community command in route-policy configuration mode.

set community { community-set-name | inline-community-set | parameter } [ additive ]

Syntax Description

community-set-name	Community set name.
inline-community-set	Inline community set. The inline community set must be enclosed in parentheses.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the set community command to set the BGP community attribute.

Note	The set community command can be used as an action statement within an if statement. For a list of all action statements available within an if statement, see the if command.

Communities are 32-bit values carried in BGP routes. Each route may have zero or more communities in an unordered list.

Use this command to replace the communities in a route or add to them using the optional additive keyword.

As with the other community forms that support inline sets, either or both 16-bit portions of the community can be parameterized. Likewise, the names of the well-known communities internet (0:0), no-advertise (65535:65281), no-export (65535:65282), and local-AS (65535:65283) can also be used. In an inline community set, each 16-bit portion can also be specified as the peeras to express the AS number of the neighbor from which the route was received. If the neighbor AS employs a 4-byte ASN, the IANA-assigned 16-bit value 23456 (AS_TRANS) is used as peeras instead.

Without the additive keyword, any existing communities (other than the well-known communities) are removed and replaced with the given communities. The additive keyword specifies that all communities already present in the route be maintained and the list of communities be added to them.

set dampening

To configure Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) route dampening, use the set dampening command in route-policy configuration mode.

set dampening { halflife { minutes | parameter } | max-suppress { minutes | parameter } | reuse { seconds | parameter } | suppress { penalty-units | parameter } | others default }

Syntax Description

halflife minutes	Specifies the time (in minutes) after which a penalty is decreased. After the route has been assigned a penalty, the penalty is decreased by half after the half-life period. The process of reducing the penalty happens every 5 seconds. Range is 1 to 45 minutes.
parameter	Parameter name. The parameter name must be preceded with a “$.”
max-suppress minutes	Specifies the maximum time (in minutes) a route can be suppressed. Range is 1 to 20000. If the half-life value is allowed to default, the maximum suppress time defaults to 60 minutes.
reuse seconds	Unsuppresses a route if the penalty for flapping the route decreases enough to fall below the configured value (in seconds). The process of unsuppressing routes occurs at 10-second increments. Range is 1 to 20000.
suppress penalty-units	Specifies a penalty of 1000 each time a route flaps. When a route penalty exceeds the configured limit, it is suppressed. Range is 1 to 20000.
others default	If all four keyword values are not specified in the command, then the command must end with others default . This designation indicates that any keyword not defined is set to its default.

Command Default

half-life : 15 minutes

max-suppress : 60 minutes (four times the half-life)

reuse : 750 seconds

suppress : 2000 penalty units

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

The BGP protocol supports route dampening using an exponential backoff algorithm. The algorithm is controlled by setting the four supported BGP values: half-life, max-suppress, reuse, and suppress. Use the set dampening command to configure BGP route dampening.

Note	The set dampening command can be used as an action statement within an if statement. For a list of all action statements available within an if statement, see the if command.

A value for at least one of the four keywords must be set. If the set dampening command defines values for three or fewer of the supported keywords, then the configuration must end with the others default , which indicates that any keyword value not defined in the command is set to its default value.

The keywords may appear in the command in any order.

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# set dampening max-suppress 90 others default

In this example, all four keywords are defined, which means the command does not use others default .

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# set dampening halflife 15 max-suppress 60 reuse 750 suppress 2000

The following command is invalid because it is missing others default.

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# set dampening reuse 700

In the following example, the parameters are used.

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# set dampening halflife $p1 suppress $p4 reuse $p3 max-suppress $p2

Use the set extcommunity cost command to either replace the extended communities on the route or add to them using the optional additive keyword. Cost community is an extended community used to tie break the best path selection process in BGP so as to have a localized custom decision for packet forwarding. The extended community format defines generic points of insertion (POI) that influence the decision at different points of the bestpath algorithm.

Note	The set extcommunity cost command can be used as an action statement within an if statement. For a list of all action statements available within an if statement, see the if command.

As with the other extended community forms that support inline sets, either or both portions of the community can be parameterized. Similarly to regular communities, the additive keyword can be used to signify adding these extended communities to those that are already present, as opposed to replacing them. Without the additive keyword, any existing extended communities for cost (other than the well-known communities) are removed and replaced with the given communities. The additive keyword specifies that all extended communities for cost already present in the route be maintained and the set of extended communities be added to them. Well-known communities include internet, local-AS, no-advertise, and no-export.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the set med command to set the MED value, which is a 32-bit unsigned integer.

Note	The set med command can be used as an action statement within an if statement. For a list of all action statements available within an if statement, see the if command.

This command can take the following as argument values: an integer, a parameter, the igp-cost keyword, or a mathematical operator (either plus or minus) followed by an integer or a parameter. Setting the MED to the IGP cost is supported on outbound BGP policies only. The MED cannot be set to the IGP cost in policies applied to other BGP attach points.

The max-reachable keyword sets the MED to the maximum value while leaving the route reachable.

The plus or minus variants allow the user to set the MED to the MED plus or minus a static offset. The variants that allow a user to add or subtract offsets to the MED value are also range checked for underflow or overflow. If the value underflows as a result of subtraction, then the MED value is set to zero. If the value overflows, the value is set to 4294967295, which is the maximum value for MED. when MED is set to 4294967295, the route is unreachable.

Task ID

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the set tag command to set the tag attribute.

Note	The set tag command can be used as an action statement within an if statement. For a list of all action statements available within an if statement, see the if command.

Tags are routing-protocol independent 32-bit integers that can be associated with a given route in the Routing Information Base (RIB).

For the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), the tag attribute can be set only at the table-policy attach point.

Task ID

Task ID	Operations
route-policy	read, write

Examples

In the following example, the tag attribute is set to 10:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# set tag 10

In this example, the tag attribute is set to a parameter value $tag_param:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# set tag $tag_param

set traffic-index

To set the traffic index attribute, use the set traffic-index command in route-policy configuration mode.

set traffic-index { number | parameter | ignore }

Syntax Description

number	Integer value assigned to the traffic index attribute. Range is 1 to 63.
parameter	Parameter name. The parameter name must be preceded with a “$.”
ignore	Specifies that Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) policy accounting is not done.

Command Default

No default behavior or values

Command Modes

Command History

Release	Modification
Release 3.2	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the set traffic-index command to set the traffic index attribute.

Note	The set traffic-index command can be used as an action statement within an if statement. For a list of all action statements available within an if statement, see the if command.

Traffic index is a special attribute for BGP. It is used as an index to a set of counters that are maintained by forwarding hardware. It is also used to track packet and byte counters that are forwarded using routes with specific attributes. These counters can be enabled and disabled on an individual interface basis.

The traffic index attribute can be set only at the table-policy attach point, and can take a value from 1 to 63, or a value of ignore . If the traffic index is set to ignore , then BGP policy accounting is not done. Parameterization of this value is also supported.

Task ID

Task ID	Operations
route-policy	read, write

Examples

In the following example, a policy is created in which the traffic index is set to 10 for all routes that originated in autonomous system 1234:

RP/0/RSP0RP0/CPU0:router(config)# route-policy count-as-1234
RP/0/RSP0RP0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if as-path originates-from ‘1234’ then
RP/0/RSP0RP0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# set traffic-index 10
RP/0/RSP0RP0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# else
RP/0/RSP0RP0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# pass
RP/0/RSP0RP0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# endif
RP/0/RSP0RP0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# end-policy

This policy could then be attached using the BGP table-policy command. The counters could then be enabled on various interfaces with the appropriate commands.

set vpn-distinguisher

To change the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) VPN distinguisher attribute, use the set vpn-distinguisher command in route-policy configuration mode.

set vpn-distinguisher { number | parameter }

Syntax Description

number	Value assigned to a 32-bit unsigned integer. Range is from 1 to 4294967295.
parameter	Parameter name. The parameter name must be preceded with a “$.”

Command Default

No default behavior or values

Command Modes

Route-policy configuration

Command History

Release	Modification
Release 3.4.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the set vpn-distinguisher command to change the VPN distinguisher attribute.

Note	The set origin command can be used as an action statement within an if statement. For a list of all action statements available within an if statement, see the if command.

A VPN distinguisher is used in Layer 3 VPN networks for enhanced individual VPN control and to avoid route target mapping at AS boundaries in inter-AS VPN networks. Route target extended communities are removed at neighbor outbound, and the VPN distinguisher value is applied on the BGP route as an extended community. When the route is received on a neighboring router in another AS, the VPN distinguisher is removed and mapped to a route target extended community.

Task ID

Task ID	Operations
route-policy	read, write

Examples

In the following example, the VPN distinguisher attribute is set to 456:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# set vpn-distinguisher 456

set weight

To set the weight value for Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) routes, use the set weight command in route-policy configuration mode.

set weight { number | parameter }

Syntax Description

number	Number assigned to the weight value for BGP routes. Weight is 16 bits. Range is 0 to 65535.
parameter	Parameter name. The parameter name must be preceded with a “$.”

Command Default

No default behavior or values

Command Modes

Route-policy configuration

Command History

Release	Modification
Release 3.2	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the set weight command to set the weight value for BGP routes.

Note	The set weight command can be used as an action statement within an if statement. For a list of all action statements available within an if statement, see the if command.

A weight is a value that can be applied to a route to override the BGP local preference. This is not a BGP attribute announced to BGP peer routers. RPL can be used to set the weight value.

Given two BGP routes with the same network layer reachability information (NLRI), a route with a higher weight is selected, no matter what the values of other BGP attributes may be. However, weight only has significance on the local router. It is not sent from one BGP speaker to another, even within the same autonomous system.

On Cisco routers, if a BGP route is sourced by the local router, its weight is automatically set to 32768; if the BGP route is learned from another router, its weight is automatically set to 0. Thus, by default, locally sourced routes are preferred over BGP learned routes.

Task ID

Task ID	Operations
route-policy	read, write

Examples

In the following example, the weight of the route is set to 10 and then to a parameter value $weight_param:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# set weight 10
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# set weight $weight_param

show rpl

To display system-wide RPL configuration, use the show rpl command in EXEC mode.

Examples

This example shows the following sample configuration:

prefix-set ten-net
 10.0.0.0/16 le 32
end-set
prefix-set too-specific
 0.0.0.0/0 ge 25 le 32
end-set
route-policy example-one
 if destination in ten-net then
  drop

route-policy set-comms
 set community (10:1234) additive
end-policy
route-policy example-three
 if destination in too-specific then
  drop
 else
  apply example-one
  pass
 endif
end-policy

The following command displays information about the policy set-comms and how it is referenced:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router# show rpl route-policy set-comms references

Usage Direct -- Reference occurs in this policy
Usage Indirect -- Reference occurs via an apply statement

Status UNUSED -- Policy is not in use at an attachpoint (unattached)
Status ACTIVE -- Policy is actively used at an attachpoint
Status INACTIVE -- Policy is applied by an unattached policy

     Usage/Status         count      
--------------------------------------------------------------
     Direct               1         
     Indirect             1         

     ACTIVE               0         
     INACTIVE             1         
     UNUSED               1         

     route-policy         usage  policy status 
--------------------------------------------------------------
    example-one          Direct  INACTIVE 
    example-three        Indirect UNUSED    

The direct usage indicates that the route policy example-one directly applies the policy set-comms, that is, example-one has a line in the form apply set-comms. The usage Indirect indicates that the route policy example-three does not directly apply the route policy set-comms. However, the route policy example-three does apply the policy example-one, which in turn applies the policy set-comms, so there is an indirect reference from example-three to the route policy set-comms.

The status column indicates one of three states. A policy is active if it is in use at an attach point. In the example provided, neither example-one nor example-three is in use at an attach point, which leaves two possible states: UNUSED or INACTIVE. The route policy example-one is inactive because it has some other policy (example-three) that references it, but neither example-one nor any of the policies that reference it (example-one) are in use at an attach point. The route policy example-three has a status of unused because it is not used at an attach point and no other route policies in the system refer to it.

This table describes the significant fields shown in the display.

 set community (10:1234) additive
end-policy
route-policy example-three
 if destination in too-specific then
  drop
 else
  apply example-one
  pass
 endif
end-policy

The following command lists the policies one and set-comms. It also lists the prefix sets too-specific and ten-net.

RP/0/0/CPU0:router# show rpl route-policy example-three uses all

Policies directly and indirectly applied by this policy:
----------------------------------------------------------
    example-one set-comms 

Sets referenced directly and indirectly
 ----------------------------------------
(via applied policies) in this policy:

type prefix-set:
    ten-net too-specific 

The sets example-one and set-comms are listed as policies that are used by the policy example-three. The policy example-one is listed because route policy example-three uses it in an apply statement. The policy set-comms is also listed because example-one applies it. Similarly, the prefix-set too-specific is used directly in the if statement in the policy example-three, and the prefix-set ten-net is used in the policy example-one. The optional direct keyword can be used to limit the output to just those sets and policies that are used within the example-three block itself, as shown in the following example:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router# show rpl route-policy example-three uses all direct

Policies directly applied by this policy:
------------------------------------------
    example-one 

Sets used directly in this policy
------------------------------------
type prefix-set:
    too-specific 

As can be seen in the output, the route policy set-comms and the prefix set ten-net are no longer included in the output when the direct keyword is used. The direct form of the command considers only those sets or policies used in the specified route policy and any additional policies or sets that may be used if you follow the hierarchy of apply statements.

This table describes the significant fields shown in the display.

source in

To test the source of a Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) route against the address contained in either a named or an inline prefix set, use the source in command in route-policy configuration mode.

source in { prefix-set-name | inline-prefix-set | parameter }

Syntax Description

prefix-set-name	Name of a prefix set.
inline-prefix-set	Inline prefix set. The inline prefix set must be enclosed in parentheses.
parameter	Parameter name. The parameter name must be preceded with a “$.”

Command Default

No default behavior or values

Command Modes

Route-policy configuration

Command History

Release	Modification
Release 3.2	This command was introduced.
Release 3.4.0	The parameter argument was added.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the source in command as a conditional expression within an if statement to test the source of the route against the data in either a named or an inline prefix set. A comparison that references a prefix set with zero elements in it returns false.

Note	For a list of all conditional expressions available within an if statement, see the if command.

The source of a BGP route is the IP peering address of the neighboring router from which the route was received.

The prefix set can contain both IPv4 and IPv6 prefix specifications.

Task ID

Task ID	Operations
route-policy	read, write

Examples

In the following example, the source of a BGP route is tested against the data in the prefix set my-prefix-set:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# route-policy policy-A
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if source in my-prefix-set then 

In this example, the source of a BGP route is tested against the data in an inline IPv4 prefix set:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# route-policy policy-B
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if source in (10.0.0.8, 10.0.0.20) then 

In this example, the source of a route is tested against the data in an inline IPv6 prefix set:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# route-policy policy-C
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if source in (2001:0:0:1::/64, 2001:0:0:2::/64) then

suppress-route

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Command Default

No default behavior or values

Command Modes

Route-policy configuration

Command History

Release	Modification
Release 3.2	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the suppress-route command to indicate that a given component of an aggregate should be suppressed, that is, not advertised by BGP. See the unsuppress-route command for information on overriding the suppress-route command for individual neighbors.

The suppress-route command can be used as an action statement within an if statement. For a list of all action statements available within an if statement, see the if command.

Task ID

Task ID	Operations
route-policy	read, write

Examples

In the following example, if the destination is in 10.1.0.0/16, then the route is not advertised:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# oute-policy check-aggregater
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if destination in (10.1.0.0/16) then
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# suppress-route

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# endif
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# end-policy

Related Commands

Command	Description
unsuppress-route	Indicates that a given component of an aggregate should be unsuppressed

tag

To match a specific tag value, use the tag command in route-policy configuration mode.

tag { eq | ge | le | is } { integer | parameter }

Syntax Description

eq | ge | le | is	Equal to; greater than or equal to; less than or equal to.
integer	Integer value. Range is 0 to 4294967295.
parameter	Parameter name. The parameter name must be preceded with a “$.”

Command Default

No default behavior or values

Release	Modification
Release 3.2	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the tag command as a conditional expression within an if statement to match a specific tag value.

Note	For a list of all conditional expressions available within an if statement, see the if command.

A tag is a 32-bit integer that can be associated with a given route within the RIB.

The eq operator matches either a specific tag value or a parameter value. Its variants ge and le match a range of tag values that are either greater than or equal to or less than or equal to the supplied value or parameter.

Task ID

Task ID	Operations
route-policy	read, write

Examples

In the following example, if the tag equals 10, then the condition returns true:

RP/0/RSP0RP0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if tag eq 10 then

unsuppress-route

To indicate that a given component of a BGP aggregate should be unsuppressed, use the unsuppress-route command in route-policy configuration mode.

unsuppress-route

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Command Default

No default behavior or values

Command Modes

Route-policy configuration

Command History

Release	Modification
Release 3.2	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the unsuppress-route command to indicate that a given component of an aggregate should be unsuppressed, that is, allowed to be advertised by BGP again. This command affects routes that have been suppressed in the generation of BGP aggregates. If the request to unsuppress a route is encountered in a policy at a neighbor-out attach point, it guarantees that the routes that it affects are advertised to that neighbor even if that route was suppressed using the suppress-route command in a policy at the aggregation attach point.

The unsuppress-route command can be used as an action statement within an if statement. For a list of all action statements available within an if statement, see the if command.

Task ID

Task ID	Operations
route-policy	read, write

Examples

In the following example, if the destination is in 10.1.0.0/16, then the route is not advertised:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# route-policy check-aggregate
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if destination in (10.1.0.0/16) then
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# unsuppress-route

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# endif
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# end-policy

Assuming that the policy is attached at a neighbor-out attach point, if the route 10.1.0.0/16 was suppressed in a policy at an aggregation attach point, 10.1.0.0/16 is advertised to the neighbor. Routes continue to be suppressed in advertisements to other BGP neighbors unless a specific policy is attached to unsuppress the route.

vpn-distinguisher is

To match a specific Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) VPN distinguisher, use the vpn-distinguisher is command in route-policy configuration mode.

vpn-distinguisher is { number | parameter }

Syntax Description

number	Value assigned to a 32-bit unsigned integer. Range is from 1 to 4294967295.
parameter	Parameter name. The parameter name must be preceded with a “$.”

Command Default

No default behavior or values

Command Modes

Route-policy configuration

Command History

Release	Modification
Release 3.4.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Use the vpn-distinguisher is command as a conditional expression within an if statement to test the value of the origin attribute.

A VPN distinguisher is used in Layer 3 VPN networks for enhanced individual VPN control and to avoid route target mapping at AS boundaries in inter-AS VPN networks. Route target extended communities are removed at neighbor outbound and the VPN distinguisher value is applied on the BGP route as an extended community. When the route is received on a neighboring router in another AS, the VPN distinguisher is removed and mapped to a route target extended community.

Note	For a list of all conditional expressions available within an if statement, see the if command.

This command can be parameterized.

Task ID

Task ID	Operations
route-policy	read, write

Examples

In the following example, the origin is tested within an if statement to learn if it is either igp or egp :

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if origin is igp or origin is egp then

In the following example, a parameter is used to match a specific origin type:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# route-policy bar($origin)
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)# if origin is $origin then
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# set med 20
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl-if)# endif
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-rpl)#
