Route Map - Sequence Numbers

Andy.S — Fri, 08 Mar 2019 05:40:14 GMT

Hi All,

Taking the cisco example below, which demos how to PBR.

access-list 1 permit 209.165.200.225

access-list 2 permit 209.165.200.226

interface ethernet 1

ip policy route-map Texas

route-map Texas permit 10

match ip address 1

set ip precedence priority

set ip next-hop 209.165.200.227

route-map Texas permit 20

match ip address 2

set ip precedence critical

set ip next-hop 209.165.200.228

Examples I've seen generally start sequence numbers from '10'. Any reason why I couldnt use 1-9 to insert a new condition before route-map Texas permit 10 e.g route-map Texas permit 5 ?

Thanks

Andy

Hey Andy,

Its just easy to interpret, you may use any any number:

R1(config)#route-map test ?
<0-65535> Sequence to insert to/delete from existing route-map entry
deny Route map denies set operations
permit Route map permits set operations
<cr>

HTH.

Regards,

RS.

No reason at all. In fact that is usually why you see this numbering ie. it allows you to modify your route map without having to delete and recreate it.
