To view routing policy usage

Purpose

You can use the NFM-P to display which NEs are currently using a global or local version of certain routing policy type. For some policy types, for example, a route next hop template policy, you can view the OSPF/ISIS interfaces on which the policy was applied.

Note: To perform this procedure, you must use a routing policy that has been released and distributed to one or more NEs; see To release and distribute a policy .

Not all NFM-P routing policies support this functionality. If you can select the Policy Usage tab associated with a distributed routing policy, then the policy is supported.

Steps
 

Choose Policies→Routing→Policy type in the NFM-P main menu where Policy Type is the type of policy that you want to view the routing policy usage of. The appropriate policy manager form opens.


Click Search and choose the required policy, then click Properties. The appropriate Routing Policy form opens.


Click the Policy Usage tab and click Search.

The location of Policy Usage details varies for some routing policies. For example, for Routing Policy Statements, click on the required protocol sub-tab such as LDP, BGP, or OSPF for policy usage information.


Choose an entry and click Properties. The properties form opens and provides
