Configure Group-Specific Properties

You can group together neighbors that share the same export policy and export metric defaults. You configure group-specific RIPng properties by including the group statement:

[edit protocols ripng]

group group-name { 

    export [ policy-names ];

    metric-out metric;

    neighbor {

        neighbor-options;

    }

    preference number;

}

For a list of hierarchy levels at which you can configure these statements, see the statement summary sections for these statements.

Each group must contain at least one neighbor. You should create a group for each export policy that you have. For information about configuring neighbors, see Define RIPng Global Properties.

This section discusses the following tasks:

• Apply Export Policy
• Control Route Preference
• Modify the Outgoing Metric
