Flow routes provide traffic filtering and rate-limiting capabilities much like firewall filters.
You can propagate flow routes across different autonomous systems. A flow route is an
aggregation of match conditions for IP packets. Flow routes are propagated through the
network using flow-specific network-layer reachability information (NLRI) messages
and are maintained in the flow routing table. Packets can travel through flow routes only
if specific match conditions are met. Flow routes and firewall filters are similar in that
they filter packets based on packet components and perform an action on the packets
that match.
To configure a flow route in NSM:
In the navigation tree, select
