IP Policy Routing (IPPR)
Traditionally, routing is based on the destination address only and the router takes the shortest path to
forward a packet. IP Policy Routing (IPPR) provides a mechanism to override the default routing behavior
and alter the packet forwarding based on the policy defined by the network administrator.
