Ip Route-Import - Dell S6100 Configuration Manual

Usage Information To export all the routes corresponding to a source VRF, you can use the ip route-export tag command
without specifying the route-map attribute. This action exposes source VRF routes to various other VRFs, which
then import these routes using the ip route-import tag command.
In Dell Networking OS, you can configure one route-export per VRF as you can only expose one set of routes for
leaking. However, you can configure multiple route-import targets because a VRF can accept routes from multiple
VRFs.
You can expose a unique set of routes from the source VRF for leaking to other VRFs. When two VRFs leak or
export routes, there is no option to discretely filter leaked routes from each source VRF. For example, you cannot
import one set of routes from one VRF and another set of routes from another VRF.
Only active routes are eligible for leaking. For example, if one VRF has two routes corresponding to BGP and OSPF,
in which the BGP route is not active, the OSPF route takes precedence over BGP. Even though the target VRF
has specified filtering options to match BGP, the BGP route is not leaked as that route is not active in the Source
VRF.

ip route-import — imports routes from another VRF.
Enter the keywords route-import to import routes into the VRF.
Enter a tag (ASN number) to specify an import route target for importing routes from
another VRF.
To import leaked routes from another VRF, use the same ASN number that is specified as
the export route target at the source VRF.
Enter the name of the route-map to filter the imported routes.
NOTE:
RTM. Route-maps allow you to filter routes at the import end based on the
matching criteria that you define in the route-map.
