This command specifies the entries of prefix-lists to be matched. If there is a match for the 
specified prefix-list entries, and permit is specified, the route is redistributed or controlled, as 
specified by the set action. If the match criteria are met, and deny is specified, the route is not 
redistributed or controlled. If the match criteria are not met, the route is neither accepted nor 
forwarded, irrespective of permit or deny specifications. 
 
The route specified by the policies might not be the same as specified by the routing protocols. 
Setting policies enable packets to take different routes depending on their length or content. 
Packet forwarding based on configured policies overrides packet forwarding specified in routing 
tables. 
Note:
This command is valid for BGP, OSPF and RIP only.
