336 Chapter 36 IP Policy Routing
• routing the packet to a different gateway (and hence the outgoing interface).
• setting the TOS and precedence fields in the IP header.
IPPR follows the existing packet filtering facility of RAS in style and in implementation. The
policies are divided into sets, where related policies are grouped together. A user defines the
policies before applying them to an interface or a remote node, in the same fashion as the
filters. There are 12 policy sets with six policies in each set.
36.4 IP Routing Policy Setup
Menu 25 shows all the policies defined.
Figure 208 Menu 25 IP Routing Policy Setup

Type 25 in the main menu to open Menu 25 – IP Routing Policy Setup .
2 Type the index of the policy set you want to configure to open Menu 25.1 – IP Routing
Policy Setup .
Menu 25.1 shows the summary of a policy set, including the criteria and the action of a single
policy, and whether a policy is active or not. Each policy contains two lines. The former part is
the criteria of the incoming packet and the latter is the action. Between these two parts,
separator “|” means the action is taken on criteria matched and separator “=” means the action
is taken on criteria not matched.
