BGP Route statement

[stevec90]

I am not clear on the exact meaning of "match as-path 3" in the following route statement, how does it translate?

route-map SET_LOC_PREF permit 10

match as-path 3

Hi

Elsewhere in your config, you should have a line starting:

ip as-path access-list 3

That is what the '3' refers to ... the regular expressions after the permit/deny statements in the ACL match the AS-Path attribute of the BGP prefixes..
