Configuration mode


policy {
    route-map map-name {
        rule rule-num {
            match {
                metric metric
            }
        }
    }
}

Use the set form of this command to define a match condition for a route map policy based route metric.

Packets are matched based on whether the route metric matches that specified by this command. Depending on the action defined for the rule using policy route route-map <map-name> rule <rule-num> action, matched packets are either permitted or denied. Based on the forwarding information specified by the set statements in the route map rule, permitted packets are forwarded to their various destinations.

If more than one match condition is defined in a route map rule, the packet must match all conditions to count as a match. If no match condition is defined for the route map rule, all packets are considered to match the rule.

Use the delete form of this command to remove the route source match condition.

Use the show form of this command to display route source match condition configuration.
