Relationship between the match mode and clauses on the node
Does a packet match all the
if-match clauses on the
node?
Match mode
In permit mode In deny mode
Yes
• If the node is configured with
an apply clause, IPv6 PBR
executes the apply clause on
the node. It does not match
the packet against the next
node.
• If the node is configured with
no apply clause, the packet is
forwarded according to the
routing table.
The packet is forwarded according
to the routing table.
No
IPv6 PBR matches the packet
against the next node.
IPv6 PBR matches the packet
against the next node.
A node that has no if-match clauses matches any packet.
PBR and Track
PBR can work with the Track feature to dynamically adapt the availability status of an apply clause to
the link status of a tracked next hop.
• When the track entry associated with an object changes to Negative, the apply clause is
invalid.
• When the track entry changes to Positive or NotReady, the apply clause is valid.
For more information about Track-PBR collaboration, see High Availability Configuration Guide.
