Multiple Values in a Route Map Match Entry Overview

You can specify more than one value in each match entry of a route map by using any of the following match commands:

• match as-path
• match community
• match distance
• match extcommunity-list
• match ip address
• match ip next-hop
• match ipv6 address
• match ipv6 next-hop
• match ipv6 route-source
• match level
• match metric
• match policy-list
• match route-type
• match tag

A clause with multiple values matches a route that contains any of the values; that is, the multiple values are logically joined by an OR operator.

You can also issue successive match commands to add new values to a route map entry for any of the preceding commands.

This method is equivalent to issuing the following single command:

You cannot specify multiple values for the match metric-type command because it accepts only two values that are mutually exclusive. Specifying both values has the same effect as not specifying a metric type at all; specifying the same value more than once has no meaning.
