268 IP Routing Conﬁguration and Management

MatchIpRouteSource If conﬁgured, matches the next hop IP address

for RIP routes and advertising router IDs

for OSPF routes against the contents of the

speciﬁed preﬁx list. This option is ignored for all

other route types.

MatchNextHop If conﬁgured, matches the next hop IP address

of the route against the contents of the speciﬁed

preﬁx list. This ﬁeld applies only to non-local

routes.

MatchInterface If conﬁgured, the switch matches the IP address

of the interface by which the RIP route was

learned against the contents of the speciﬁed

preﬁx list. This ﬁeld is used only for RIP routes

and ignored for all other type of route.

MatchRouteType Sets a speciﬁc route-type to be matched (applies

only to OSPF routes). Externaltype1, and

Externaltype2 specify the OSPF routes of the

speciﬁed type only. OSPF internal refers to intra-

and inter-area routes.

MatchMetric If conﬁgured, the switch matches the metric of

the incoming advertisement or existing route

against the speciﬁed value (1 to 655535). If 0,

then this ﬁeld is ignored. The default is 0.

NssaPbit Set or reset the P bit in speciﬁed type 7 LSA. By

default the P bit is always set in case the user set

it to a disable state for a particular route policy

than all type 7. LSAs associated with that route

policy will have the P bit cleared with this intact

NSSA ABR will not perform translation of these

LSAs to type 5. Default is enabled.

SetRoutePreference Setting the preference greater than zero,

speciﬁes the route preference value to be

assigned to the routes which matches this policy.

This applies to Accept policies only. You can set

a value from 0 to 255. The default value is 0. If

the default is conﬁgured, the global preference

value is used.

SetMetric If conﬁgured, the switch sets the metric value

for the route while announcing or redistributing.

The default-import-metric is 0. If the default

is conﬁgured, the original cost of the route is

advertised into OSPF; for RIP, the original cost of

the route or the default value is used.
