QuestionQ55

Routing Policy and Manipulation

What is the difference between RPL and route-maps?

  • A Unlike RPL, route-maps are supported with IPv4 address families only.
  • B Unlike route-maps, only RPL supports extcommunity sets to group extended communities.
  • C Unlike route-maps, only RPL is designed for bulk configuration of multiple devices.
  • D Unlike RPL, route-maps are designed for BGP protocol only.
Explanation

RPL supports extcommunity sets, which define groups of extended BGP communities that can be referenced by routing policies. Route-maps are neither restricted to IPv4 address families nor exclusively for BGP, and neither technology is inherently a bulk multi-device configuration facility.
