Creating and editing route policies

You can configure route policies to be used for In, Out, and Redistribute purposes by all protocols.

Note: Changing route preferences is a process-oriented operation that can affect system performance and network reachability while performing the procedures. Therefore, Nortel Networks recommends that if you want to change a prefix list or a routing protocol, you should configure all route policies and prefix lists before enabling the protocols.

To create or edit a route policy:

1. From the Device Manager menu bar, choose IP Routing > Policy.

The Policy dialog box opens with the Prefix List tab displayed.

2. Click the Route Policy tab.

The Route Policy tab opens.

3. Click Insert.

The Policy, Insert Route Policy dialog box opens.
