Command History
|
|
4.1(2) |
This command was introduced. |
Usage Guidelines
Use the match as-number command to provide a list of AS numbers or an AS-path access list using a regular expression. BGP uses this match criteria to determine which BGP peers to create a BGP session with.
Use the route map to specify a range of AS numbers whose peers can establish session with the local BGP through prefix peering. Cisco NX-OS ignores any other match commands if the match as-number command is present in the route-map.
This command does not require a license.
Examples
This example shows how to configure a list of AS numbers:
switch(config
)# route-map IGP2BGP
switch(config
-route-map)# match as-number 64496, 64498-64510
Related Commands
|
|
ip as-path access-list |

match as-path
To match a BGP autonomous system path access list, use the match as-path command in route-map configuration mode. To remove a path list entry, use the no form of this command.
match as-path name [... name ]
no match as-path name [... name ]
Syntax Description
name |
Autonomous system path access list. The name can be any alphanumeric string up to 63 characters. |
...name |
(Optional) Autonomous system path access list. You can configure up to 32 access list names . |

Command History
|
|
4.0(1) |
This command was introduced. |
Usage Guidelines
The values set by the match as-path command overrides global values.
A route map can have several parts. Any route that does not match at least one match clause relating to a route-map command will be ignored; that is, the route will not be advertised for outbound route maps and will not be accepted for inbound route maps. If you want to modify only some data, you must configure a second route-map section with an explicit match specified.
This command does not require a license.
Examples
This example sets the autonomous system path to match BGP autonomous system path access list 20:
switch(config
)# route-map IGP2BGP
switch(config
-route-map)# match as-path 20

4.0(1) |
This command was introduced. |
Usage Guidelines
A route map can have several parts. Any route that does not match at least one match command relating to a route-map command will be ignored; that is, the route will not be advertised for outbound route maps and will not be accepted for inbound route maps. If you want to modify only some data, you must configure a second route-map section with an explicit match specified.
Matching that is based on the community list number is one of the types of match commands applicable to BGP.
This command does not require a license.
Examples
This example shows how to match two BGP communities:
switch(config
)# route-map test2
switch(config
-route-map)# match community bgpLow bgpHigh
This example shows that the routes matching community list 1 will have the weight set to 200. Any route that has the standard community 109 only will have the weight set to 200.
switch(config
)# ip community-list standard bgpLow permit 109
switch(config
)# route-map set_weight
switch(config
-route-map)# match community bgpLow exact-match
switch(config
-route-map)# set weight 200
This example shows that the routes that match the community list 500. Any route that has expanded community 1 will have the weight set to 150.
switch(config
)# ip community-list expanded 500 permit [0-9]*
switch(config
)# route-map MAP_NAME permit 10
switch(config
-route-map)# match community 500
switch(config

Usage Guidelines
Use the match interface command to provide a list of interfaces to match a route against. Route next-hop addresses that are reached by one of these interfaces result in a match for the route map.
A route map can have several parts. Any route that does not match at least one match clause relating to a route-map command will be ignored; that is, the route will not be advertised for outbound route maps and will not be accepted for inbound route maps. If you want to modify only some data, you must configure a second route-map section with an explicit match specified.
This command does not require a license.

match ip address
To distribute any routes that have a destination IPv4 network number address that is permitted by a standard access list, an expanded access list, or a prefix list, or to perform policy routing on packets, use the match ip address command. To remove the match ip address entry, use the no form of this command.
match ip address { access-list-name [ access-list-name... ] | prefix-list prefix-list-name [ prefix-list-name... ]}
no match ip address { access-list-name [ access-list-name... ] | prefix-list prefix-list-name [ prefix-list-name... ]}
Syntax Description
access-list-name... |
Name of a standard or expanded access list. It can be any alphanumeric string up to 63 characters. The ellipsis indicates that multiple values can be entered, up to 32 prefix lists. |
prefix-list prefix-list-name... |
Distributes routes based on a prefix list. The prefix list name can be any alphanumeric string up to 63 characters. The ellipsis indicates that multiple values can be entered, up to 32 prefix lists. |
Defaults
No access list names or prefix lists are specified.
Command Modes
Route-map configuration (config-route-map)
network-admin
vdc-admin
Command History
|
|
4.0(1) |
This command was introduced. |
Usage Guidelines
The access-list-name argument is supported in route maps for Policy based-routing (PBR) only.
An ellipsis (...) in the command syntax indicates that your command input can include multiple values for the access-list-name or the prefix-list-name arguments .
Like matches in the same route map subblock are filtered with “or” semantics. If any one match clause is matched in the entire route map subblock, this match is treated as a successful match. Dissimilar match clauses are filtered with “and” semantics. Dissimilar matches are filtered logically. If the first set of conditions is not met, the second match clause is filtered. This process continues until a match occurs or there are no more match clauses.
Use route maps to redistribute routes or to subject packets to policy routing.
Redistribution
Use the route-map global configuration command, and the match and set route-map configuration commands, to define the conditions for redistributing routes from one routing protocol into another. Each route-map command has a list of match and set commands associated with it. The match commands specify the match criteria —the conditions under which redistribution is allowed for the current route-map command. The set commands specify the set actions —the particular redistribution actions to perform if the criteria enforced by the match commands are met. The no route-map command deletes the route map.
The match route-map configuration command has multiple formats. The match commands can be given in any order, and all match commands must “pass” to cause the route to be redistributed according to the set actions given with the set commands. The no forms of the match commands remove the specified match criteria.
When you are passing routes through a route map, a route map can have several sections that contain specific match clauses. Any route that does not match at least one match clause relating to a route-map command will be ignored; that is, the route will not be advertised for outbound route maps and will not be accepted for inbound route maps. If you want to modify only some data, you must configure a second route map section with an explicit match specified.
Policy Routing
Another purpose of route maps is to enable policy routing. The match ip address command allows you to policy route packets based on criteria that can be matched with an expanded access list; for example, a protocol, protocol service, and source or destination IP address. To define the conditions for policy routing packets, use the ip policy route-map interface configuration command, in addition to the route-map global configuration command, and the match and set route-map configuration commands. Each route-map command has a list of match and set commands associated with it. The match commands specify the match criteria —the conditions under which policy routing occurs. The set commands specify the set actions —the particular routing actions to perform if the criteria enforced by the match commands are met. You might want to policy route packets based on their source, for example, using an access list.
This command does not require a license.
Examples
This example shows how to match routes that have addresses specified by an access list test:
switch(config
)# feature pbr
switch(config
)# interface ethernet 2/10
switch(config-if
)# ip policy route-map chicago
switch(config
)# route-map chicago
switch(config
-route-map)# match ip address test

match ipv6 address
To distribute any routes that have a destination IPv6 network number address that is permitted by a standard access list, an expanded access list, or a prefix list, or to perform policy routing on packets, use the match ipv6 address command in route-map configuration mode. To remove the match statement from the route map, use the no form of this command.
match ipv6 address { prefix-list prefix-list-name [ prefix-list-name... ] | access-list-name
no match ipv6 address { prefix-list prefix-list-name [ prefix-list-name... ] | access-list-name }
Syntax Description
prefix-list prefix-list-name... |
Distributes routes based on a prefix list. The prefix list name can be any alphanumeric string up to 63 characters. The ellipsis indicates that multiple values can be entered. You can configure up to 32 prefix lists. |
access-list-name... |
Name of a standard or expanded access list. It can be any alphanumeric string up to 63 characters. You can only use access lists for policy-based routing. |
Defaults
No access list names or prefix lists are specified.

Usage Guidelines
The access-list-name argument is supported in route-maps for PBR only.
An ellipsis (...) in the command syntax indicates that your command input can include multiple values for the prefix-list-name argument .
Like matches in the same route map subblock are filtered with “or” semantics. If any one match clause is matched in the entire route map subblock, this match is treated as a successful match. Dissimilar match clauses are filtered with “and” semantics. So dissimilar matches are filtered logically. If the first set of conditions is not met, the second match clause is filtered. This process continues until a match occurs or there are no more match clauses.
Use route maps to redistribute routes or to subject packets to policy routing. Both purposes are described in this section.
Redistribution
Use the route-map global configuration command, and the match and set route-map configuration commands, to define the conditions for redistributing routes from one routing protocol into another. Each route-map command has a list of match and set commands associated with it. The match commands specify the match criteria —the conditions under which redistribution is allowed for the current route-map command. The set commands specify the set actions —the particular redistribution actions to perform if the criteria enforced by the match commands are met. The no route-map command deletes the route map.
The match route-map configuration command has multiple formats. The match commands can be given in any order, and all match commands must “pass” to cause the route to be redistributed according to the set actions given with the set commands. The no forms of the match commands remove the specified match criteria.
When you are passing routes through a route map, a route map can have several sections that contain specific match clauses. Any route that does not match at least one match clause relating to a route-map command will be ignored; that is, the route will not be advertised for outbound route maps and will not be accepted for inbound route maps. If you want to modify only some data, you must configure a second route map section with an explicit match specified.
This command does not require a license.
Examples
This example shows how to match routes that have addresses specified by the access list named red:
switch(config
)# feature pbr
switch(config
)# route-map blue
switch(config
-route-map)# match ipv6 address red

The no forms of the match commands remove the specified match criteria.
A route map can have several parts. Any route that does not match at least one match clause relating to a route-map command will be ignored; that is, the route will not be advertised for outbound route maps and will not be accepted for inbound route maps. If you want to modify only some data, you must configure second route map section with an explicit match specified.
You can specify more than one keyword.
This command does not require a license.

Command Modes

Command History
|
|
4.0(1) |
This command was introduced. |
Usage Guidelines
Use the max-metric router-lsa command to originate LSAs with a maximum metric (LSInfinity: 0xFFFF) through all nonstub links, which allows BGP routing tables to converge without attracting transit traffic (if there are not alternate lower cost paths to the router). The router advertises accurate (normal) metrics after the configured or default timers expire or after BGP sends a notification that routing tables have converged.
Updates hold true to all releases that have this command and option.
wait-for-bgp is a feature to avoid the IGP from declaring its ready to be used for transit after a reload, if BGP on the device has not converged yet (received the entire routing table from its peers and installed in FIB). This prevents an upstream node sending externally bound (BGP) traffic to this node prematurely and causing traffic blackholing.
Note Directly connected links in a stub network are not affected by the configuration of a maximum or infinite metric because the cost of a stub link is always set to the output interface cost.
You can use the max-metric router-lsa command in the following situations:
- Reloading a router. After a router is reloaded, Interior Gateway Protocols (IGPs) converge very quickly, and other routers may try to forward traffic through the newly reloaded router. If the router is still building BGP routing tables, the packets that are destined for other networks that the router has not learned through BGP may be dropped.
- Introducing a router into a network without routing traffic through it. You may want to connect a router to an OSPF network but not want real traffic to flow through the router if there are better alternate paths. If no alternate paths exist, then this router would still accept transit traffic.
- Gracefully removing a router from a network. This feature allows you to gracefully remove a router from the network by advertising a maximum metric through all links, which allows other routers to select alternate paths for transit traffic to follow before the router is shut down.
Note You should not save the running configuration of a router that is configured for a graceful shutdown because the router will continue to advertise a maximum metric after it is reloaded.
This command requires the Enterprise Services license.
Examples

switch(config)# router ospf 100
switch(config-router)# max-metric router-lsa on-startup 100

maximum-prefix
To control how many prefixes can be received from a neighbor, use the maximum-prefix command. To disable this function, use the no form of this command.
maximum-prefix maximum [ threshold ] [ restart restart-interval ] [ warning-only ]
no maximum-prefix
Syntax Description
maximum |
Maximum number of prefixes allowed from the specified neighbor. The number of prefixes that can be configured is limited only by the available system resources on a router. Range: 1 to 300000. |
threshold |
(Optional) Specifies percentage of the maximum-prefix limit at which the router starts to generate a warning message. Range: 1 to 100. Default: 75. |
restart interval |
(Optional) Specifies the time interval (in minutes) that a peering session is reestablished. Range: 1 to 65535. |
warning-only |
(Optional) Allows the router to generate a syslog message when the maximum-prefix limit is exceeded, instead of terminating the peering session. |
Defaults
This command is disabled by default. Peering sessions are disabled when the maximum number of prefixes is exceeded. If you do not configure the restart interval, a disabled session will stay down after the maximum-prefix limit is exceeded.

4.0(1) |
This command was introduced. |
Usage Guidelines
The number of prefixes that can be configured is limited only by the available system resources on a router.
The maximum-prefix command allows you to configure a maximum number of prefixes that a Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) routing process will accept from the specified peer. This feature provides a mechanism (in addition to distribute lists, filter lists, and route maps) to control prefixes received from a peer.
When the number of received prefixes exceeds the maximum number configured, BGP disables the peering session (by default). If the restart keyword is configured, BGP will automatically reestablish the peering session at the configured time interval. If the restart keyword is not configured and a peering session is terminated because the maximum prefix limit has been exceed, the peering session will not be be reestablished until the clear ip bgp command is entered. If the warning-only keyword is configured, BGP sends only a log message and continues to peer with the sender.
There is no default limit on the number of prefixes that can be configured with this command. Limitations on the number of prefixes that can be configured are determined by the amount of available system resources.
Examples
In this example, the maximum prefixes that will be accepted from the 192.168.1.1 neighbor is set to 1000:
switch(config)# router bgp 64496
switch(config-router)# network 192.168.0.0
switch(config-router)# maximum-prefix 1000
This example shows the maximum number of prefixes that will be accepted from the 192.168.2.2 neighbor is set to 5000. The router is also configured to display warning messages when 50 percent of the maximum-prefix limit (2500 prefixes) has been reached.
switch(config)# router bgp 64496
switch(config-router)# network 192.168.0.0
switch(config-router)# maximum-prefix 5000 50
This example shows the maximum number of prefixes that will be accepted from the 192.168.3.3 neighbor is set to 2000. The router is also configured to reestablish a disabled peering session after 30 minutes.
switch(config)# router bgp 64496
switch(config-router)# network 192.168.0.0
switch(config-router)# maximum-prefix 2000 restart 30
This example shows the warning messages that will be displayed when the maximum-prefix limit (500) for the 192.168.4.4 neighbor is exceeded:
switch(config)# router bgp 64496
switch(config-router)# network 192.168.0.0
switch(config-router)# maximum-prefix 500 warning-only

|
6.1(1) |
This command was introduced. |
Usage Guidelines
When Cisco IOS and NX-OS are connected in a network, the metric direct command needs to be configured on all the NX-OS routers for them to be compatible with Cisco IOS RIP.
When metric-direct 0 is enabled:
- All the local routes are installed with cost 0.
- All the RIP routes will be advertised with +1 metric.
- No metric will be added to the incoming routes by default (unless there is cost associated with the incoming interface).
When the metric-direct is disabled (which is the default behavior):
- All the local routes are installed with cost 1.
- All the RIP routes are advertised as-is.
- Default cost of +1 is added to the incoming routes by default.
This command requires the Enterprise Services license.
Examples
This example shows how to enable the cost of direct routes:
switch(config)# feature rip
switch(config)# router rip 1
switch(config-router)# metric direct 0

4.0(1) |
This command was introduced. |
Usage Guidelines
Use the metric weights command to alter the default behavior of EIGRP routing and metric computation and allow the tuning of the EIGRP metric calculation for a particular ToS.
If k5 equals 0, Cisco NX-OS computes the composite EIGRP metric according to the following formula:
metric = [k1 x bandwidth + (k2 x bandwidth)/(256 – load) + k3 x delay]
If k5 does not equal zero, Cisco NX-OS performs an additional calculation:
metric = metric x [k5/(reliability + k4)]
Use the bandwidth command in interface configuration mode to set the bandwidth metric.
Use the delay command in interface configuration mode to set the delay.
255 is a reliability of 100 percent or a perfectly stable link. A load of 255 indicates a completely saturated link.
Configuration of k6 is supported only in 64-bit metric version mode.
This command requires the Enterprise Services license.
Examples
This example shows how to set the metric weights to change the default values:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# router eigrp 1
switch(config-router) address-family ipv4 unicast
switch(config-router-af)# metric weights 0 2 0 2 0 2
