Usage Guidelines
•
A regular expression consists of a character string presented in the form of a pattern, e.g., ^100 200$.
Refer to ip bgp policy aspath-list
(metacharacters). See also "Configuring BGP" in your Advanced Routing Guide for more information
on using regular expressions in BGP commands.
•
This command allows or stops AS path lists from being applied to a peer's inbound and outbound
routes configured via the
commands. The AS path list filters routes based on one or more regular expressions, as shown in the
example below. If the route matches the AS path list filter, then the permit or deny action (i.e., policy)
associated with the regular expression applies.
•
General or more specific AS path list information can be displayed by varying the use of the
bgp command.
Examples
-> ip bgp policy aspath-list InboundAspath "^100 200$" action permit
-> ip bgp policy aspath-list OutboundAspath "^300 400$" action deny
