20.2.2  Optionally configure a BGP route map 
Route maps provide a means to both filter and/or apply actions to a route. This allows a 
policy to be applied to routes. Route maps are an ordered list of route map entries each 
with a set of criteria that must be matched before specific attributes of the route are 
modified.  
Scroll down to the BGP Route Map section. 
Type in a name for the BGP route map name and then click Add. The ROUTEMAP 
configuration section appears. You can configure multiple route maps.
