Neighbor Import

The neighbor import attach point controls the reception of routes from a specific peer. All routes that are
received by a peer are run through the attached policy. Any routes that pass the attached policy are passed to
the BGP Routing Information Base (BRIB) as possible candidates for selection as best path routes.
When a BGP import policy is modified, it is necessary to rerun all the routes that have been received from
that peer against the new policy. The modified policy may now discard routes that were previously allowed
through, allow through previously discarded routes, or change the way the routes are modified. A new
configuration option in BGP (bgp auto-policy-soft-reset) that allows this modification to happen automatically
in cases for which either soft reconfiguration is configured or the BGP route-refresh capability has been
negotiated.
The following example shows how to receive routes from neighbor 10.0.0.1. Any routes received with the
community 3:100 have their local preference set to 100 and their community tag set to 2:666. All other routes
received from this peer have their local preference set to 200 and their community tag set to 2:200.

Network

The network attach point controls the injection of routes from the RIB into BGP. A route policy attached at
this point is able to set any of the valid BGP attributes on the routes that are being injected.
The following example shows a route policy attached at the network attach point that sets the well-known
community no-export for any routes more specific than /24:
route-policy NetworkControl
if destination in (0.0.0.0/0 ge 25) then
set community (no-export) additive
