Usage Information The continue feature allows movement from one route-map entry to a specific route-map entry (the sequence
number). If you do not specify the sequence number, the continue feature simply moves to the next sequence
number (also known as an implied continue). If a match clause exists, the continue feature executes only after
a successful match occurs. If there are no successful matches, the continue feature is ignored.
Match clause with Continue clause
The continue feature can exist without a match clause. A continue clause without a match clause executes and
jumps to the specified route-map entry.
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.
