Overview

This document describes how to import and export the default route using BGP. After a BGP connection is established all routes will be exchanged between peers. This configuration will allow only default routes to exchange between peers. All other routes will be filtered by the Palo Alto Networks device.

Additional Information


What is exact for?

if exact is not selected, and 10.0.0.0/8 is the entered prefix, it will accept prefix 10.0.0.0/8 to /32, basically any prefix in the 10. space.
