Route maps can contain match statements and set statements. Each route map contains a
"permit" or "deny" action for routes that match the match statements:

If the route map contains set statements, routes that are permitted by the route map's match
statements are modified according to the set statements.
Match statements compare the route against one or more of the following:

If the route map contains a permit action, a route that matches a match statement is
permitted; otherwise, the route is denied.
If the route map contains a deny action, a route that matches a match statement is denied.
If a route does not match any match statements in the route map, the route is denied. This is
the default action. To change the default action, configure the last match statement in the last
instance of the route map to "permit any any.".
If there is no match statement, the software considers the route to be a match.
For route maps that contain address filters, AS-path filters, or community filters, if the action
specified by a filter conflicts with the action specified by the route map, the route map's action
takes precedence over the individual filter's action.

Prepend AS numbers to the front of the route's AS-path. By adding AS numbers to the AS-path,
you can cause the route to be less preferred when compared to other routes on the basis of the
length of the AS-path.
Add a user-defined tag to the route or add an automatically calculated tag to the route.
Set the community value.
Set the local preference.
Set the MED (metric).
Set the IP address of the next hop router.
