Service Manual

Ingress and egress Hot Lock PBR allow you to add or delete new rules into an existing policy (already written into CAM) without
disruption to trac ow. Existing entries in CAM are adjusted to accommodate the new entries. Hot Lock PBR is enabled by default.
Conguration Task List for Policy-based Routing
To enable the PBR:
• Create a Redirect List
• Create a Rule for a Redirect-list
• Create a Track-id list. For complete tracking information, refer to Object Tracking chapter.
• Apply a Redirect-list to an Interface using a Redirect-group
Create a Redirect List
