Usage Information The
continue
feature allows movement from one route-map entry to a specific
route-map entry (the sequence number). If you do not specify the sequence number,
the
continue
feature simply moves to the next sequence number (also known as an
implied continue). If a match clause exists, the
continue
feature executes only after a
successful match occurs. If there are no successful matches, the
continue
feature is
ignored.
Match clause with Continue clause
The
continue
feature can exist without a match clause. A continue clause without a
match clause executes and jumps to the specified route-map entry.
With a match clause and a continue clause, the match clause executes first and the
continue clause next in a specified route map entry. The continue clause launches only
after a successful match. The behavior is:
• A successful match with a continue clause, the route map executes the set
clauses and then goes to the specified route map entry upon execution of the
continue clause.
• If the next route map entry contains a continue clause, the route map executes
the continue clause if a successful match occurs.
• If the next route map entry does not contain a continue clause, the route map
evaluates normally. If a match does not occur, the route map does not continue
and falls through to the next sequence number, if one exists.
Set Clause with Continue Clause
If the route-map entry contains sets with the continue clause, set actions are
performed first then the continue clause jumps to the specified route map entry.
• If a set action occurs in the first route map entry and then the same set action
occurs with a different value in a subsequent route map entry, the last set of
actions overrides the previous set of actions with the same
set
command.
• If
set community additive
and
set as-path prepend
are configure, the
communities and AS numbers are prepended.
