Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

PBR is deployed in the scenario where users want specific traffic to be forwarded to a desired next hop. Each node in each traffic policy for PBR is configured with rules and an action. The action is redirecting matching IP packets to an outbound interface.

Precautions

The outbound interface can only be a P2P TE Tunnel interface. If the tunnel type is changed , the configuration is deleted automatically for the PBR.

Example

# Configure Tunnel 10 as the outbound interface to which matching IP packets are redirected.
