Configuration Guide Vol. 3


4.1.1 Control Policy-Based Routing

Policy-based routing is used as part of the filter functionality.

Packets that match the filtering flow detection conditions set for the receiving-side VLAN interface are forwarded according to the policy-based routing settings specified in the filter entry.

Policy-based routing operates when the receive-side flow-detection mode is set to layer3-6,layer3-mirror-3,layer3-mirror-4,layer3-mirror-5,layer3-suppress-2,layer3-suppress-mirror-2, or custom. Packets that are forwarded over Layer 3 are subject to policy-based routing.

To enable policy-based routing, specify policy-based routing list information that contains routing information registered for access list operation. The functionality enabled by this specification is called a policy-based routing group.
