BGP Route Policies
The Alcatel-Lucent implementation of BGP uses route policies extensively. The implied or
default route policies can be overridden by customized route policies. The default BGP
properties, with no route policies configured, behave as follows:
• accept all BGP routes into the RTM for consideration
• announce all used BGP learned routes to other BGP peers
• announce none of the IGP, static, or local routes to BGP peers
