Export: The primary purpose of IS-IS and OSPF export policies are to introduce routes from other protocol. RIP Import: Accept all routes imported from RIP neighbors Export: Reject all routes advertised to RIP neighbors BGP Import: Accept all routes imported from BGP neighbors Export: Accept all routes exported to BGP neighbors in accordance with the BGP protocol requirements Routing Policy Syntax Generic policy syntax Match Conditions Policies typically contain some form of match condition The absence of a match condition means that all possible routes match Possible match conditions include: Neighbor address Protocol The protocol which activated the ro
