hi,
In CBT Nuggets, Jeremy says that, if we do not specify a permit statement at the end of the route-map, all unmatched routes will be discarded.
However, in Cisco IOS Cookbook, I read that even if we do not specify a permit statement at the end, all routes will submit to the standard routing process.
Any clarification?

hello Wassim,
my understanding is the following:
when an empty final permit statement is needed or not depends on the route-map usage:
-if the route-map is used to perform route filtering and manipulation all unmatched prefixes will be discarded: not sent to a BGP neighbor or not considered in protocol redistribution.
- if the route-map is used for PBR packets not matching any route-map block will be not discarded but routed normally using standard unicast destination based routing
Hope to help
