Example of Viewing Aggregated Routes
In the show ip bgp command, aggregates contain an ‘a’ in the rst column (shown in bold) and routes suppressed by the aggregate
contain an ‘s’ in the rst column.

Filtering BGP Routes
Filtering routes allows you to implement BGP policies.
You can use either IP prex lists, route maps, AS-PATH ACLs or IP community lists (using a route map) to control which routes the BGP
neighbor or peer group accepts and advertises. Prex lists lter routes based on route and prex length, while AS-Path ACLs lter routes
based on the ASN. Route maps can lter and set conditions, change attributes, and assign update policies.
NOTE
: Dell EMC Networking OS supports up to 255 characters in a set community statement inside a route map.
NOTE: You can create inbound and outbound policies. Each of the commands used for ltering has in and out parameters that
you must apply. In Dell EMC Networking OS, the order of preference varies depending on whether the attributes are applied for
inbound updates or outbound updates.
For inbound and outbound updates the order of preference is:
• prex lists (using the neighbor distribute-list command)
• AS-PATH ACLs (using the neighbor filter-list command)
• route maps (using the neighbor route-map command)
Prior to ltering BGP routes, create the prex list, AS-PATH ACL, or route map.
For conguration information about prex lists, AS-PATH ACLs, and route maps, refer to Access Control Lists (ACLs).
NOTE
: When you congure a new set of BGP policies, to ensure the changes are made, always reset the neighbor or peer group
by using the clear ip bgp command in EXEC Privilege mode.
To lter routes using prex lists, use the following commands.
1 Create a prex list and assign it a name.
CONFIGURATION mode
ip prefix-list prefix-name
2 Create multiple prex list lters with a deny or permit action.
CONFIG-PREFIX LIST mode
seq sequence-number {deny | permit} {any | ip-prefix [ge | le] }
