When using PBR, should it be ESSENTIAL or ADVANCED?

[Takashi Satoh]

Is it possible to weight bgp using route-map even with DNA essential?

I'm currently thinking about deploying 8200L.

In particular, I want to design route weighting using route-map with bgpv4, and I can't decide if the DNA license should be essential or advanced.

The specs state that PBR is available in independent mode, so I'm assuming I can set it up in essential.

I would like to set up something like this

route-map pbr permit 10

set local-preference 150

router bgp 62000

bgp log-neighbor-change

neighbor 192.168.1.0 route-map pbr out

!

Good Q. 
but you can try config by yourself and check.

Hello
Layer2- Layer 3 routing are under the perpetual features inclusive with DNA essentials so PBR should work, however looking at your OP and the route-map pbr,  it isn't doing any Policy-Based Routing as it is only set with a bgp local preference attribute, also I cannot tell if the route-map that it set outbound is towards and IBGP or EBGP peer, but ether way PBR isn't in affect
