Advanced Configuration and Management Guide

For example, when you configure parameters for redistributing routes into RIP, one of the optional parameters is a route map. If you specify a route map as one of the redistribution parameters, the router will match the route against the match statements in the route map. If a match is found and if the route map contains set statements, the router will set attributes in the route according to the set statements.

To create a route map, you define instances of the map. Each instance is identified by a sequence number. A route map can contain up to 50 instances.

To define a route map, use the procedures in the following sections.

Entering the Route Map Into the Software

USING THE CLI

To add instance 1 of a route map named “GET_ONE” with a permit action, enter the following command.

HP9300(config)# route-map GET_ONE permit 1

HP9300(config-routemap GET_ONE)#

Syntax: route-map <map-name> permit deny <num>

As shown in this example, the command prompt changes to the Route Map level. You can enter the match and set statements at this level. See “Specifying the Match Conditions” on page 10-61and “Setting Parameters in the Routes” on page 10-66.

The <map-name> is a string of characters that names the map. Map names can be up to 32 characters in length. You can define up 50 route maps on the router.

The permit deny parameter specifies the action the router will take if a route matches a match statement.

•If you specify deny, the routing switch does not advertise or learn the route.

•If you specify permit, the routing switch applies the match and set statements associated with this route map instance.

The <num> parameter specifies the instance of the route map you are defining. Each route map can have up to 50 instances.
