Cisco IOS XR Routing Configuration Guide
Step 3
address-family {ipv4 | ipv6} unicast 
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-vrf)# 
address-family ipv4 unicast
Enters address family configuration mode for the specified 
address family.
Step 4
maximum prefix 
maximum
 [
threshold
]
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-vrf-af)# maximum 
prefix 2300
Configures a limit to the number of prefixes allowed in a 
VRF table. 
A maximum number of routes is applicable only to dynamic 
routing protocols and not to static or connected routes. 
You can specify a threshold percentage of the prefix limit 
using the mid-threshold argument.
Step 5
import route-policy 
policy-name
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-vrf-af)# import 
route-policy policy_a
Provides finer control over what gets imported into a VRF. 
This import filter discards prefixes that do not match the 
specified policy-name argument.
Step 6
import route-target [
as-number
:
nn
 | 
ip-address
:
nn
]
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-vrf-af)# import 
route-target 234:222
Specifies a list of route target (RT) extended communities. 
Only prefixes that are associated with the specified import 
route target extended communities are imported into the 
VRF.
Step 7
export route-policy 
policy-name
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-vrf-af)# export 
route-policy policy_b
Provides finer control over what gets exported into a VRF. 
This export filter discards prefixes that do not match the 
specified policy-name argument.
