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 followed
by the continue clause jump to the specified route map entry.
• If a set action occurs in the first route map entry and 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 you configure the set community additive and set as-path prepend options, the communities
and AS numbers are prepended.
