With a match clause and a continue clause, the match clause executes first and the continue clause next
in a specified route map entry. The continue clause launches only after a successful match. The behavior
is:
● A successful match with a continue clause, the route map executes the set clauses and then goes to
the specified route map entry upon execution of the continue clause.
● If the next route map entry contains a continue clause, the route map executes the continue clause if
a successful match occurs.
● If the next route map entry does not contain a continue clause, the route map evaluates normally.
If a match does not occur, the route map does not continue and falls through to the next sequence
number, if one exists.
Set Clause with Continue Clause
If the route-map entry contains sets with the continue clause, set actions are performed first then the
continue clause jumps to the specified route map entry.
● If a set action occurs in the first route map entry and then the same set action occurs with a different
value in a subsequent route map entry, the last set of actions overrides the previous set of actions
with the same set command.
● If set community additive and set as-path prepend are configure, the communities and
AS numbers are prepended.
