Usage Guidelines
For switches configured to support multiple OSPF areas (an ABR function), an access profile can be
applied to an OSPF area that filters a set of OSPF external routes from being advertised into that area.
NOTE
If any of the external routes specified in the filter have already been advertised, those routes will remain
until the associated LSAs in that area time-out.
Using the none mode specifies that no external filter is applied.
Example
The following command configures an external filter policy from the access profile nosales:
config ospf area 1.2.3.4 external-filter nosales
