Administrator Guide

Only active routes are eligible for sharing. For example, if one VRF has two routes corresponding to BGP and
OSPF, and the BGP route is inactive, the OSPF route takes precedence over BGP. The inactive BGP route is not
shared even when the target VRF has the filtering options enabled to match BGP.

Parameters
route-import Enter the keyword route-import to import routes into the VRF.
tag Enter a tag (ASN number) to specify an import route target for importing routes from
