Information About Route Policy Manager

Route Policy Manager supports route maps and IP prefix lists. These features are used for route
redistribution and policy-based routing. A prefix list contains one or more IPv4 or IPv6 network prefixes
and the associated prefix length values. You can use a prefix list by itself in features such as Border
Gateway Protocol (BGP) templates, route filtering, or redistribution of routes that are exchanged
between routing domains.
Route maps can apply to both routes and IP packets. Route filtering and redistribution pass a route
through a route map while policy based routing passes IP packets through a route map.
