isis Specifies IS-IS and applies only to blackhole routes installed for summary addresses.
isis-level-1 Specifies IS-IS Level 1 routing.
isis-level-1-external Specifies IS-IS Level 1 External routing.
isis-level-2 Specifies IS-IS Level 2 routing.
isis-level-2-external Specifies IS-IS Level 2 External routing.
mpls Specifies MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) routing.
ospf-as-external Specifies OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) as External routing.
ospf-extern1 Specifies OSPF External 1 routing.
ospf-extern2 Specifies OSPF External 2 routing.
ospf-inter Specifies OSPFInter routing.
ospf-intra Specifies OSPFIntra routing.

Usage Guidelines

Although these priorities can be changed, do not attempt any manipulation unless you are expertly familiar with the possible consequences. If you change the route priority, you must save the configuration and reboot the system.

Note

Note

The priority for a blackhole route cannot overlap with the priority of any other route origin.

Example

The following example sets IP route priority for static routing to 1200:

configure iproute priority static 1200

History

This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 10.1.

The route priority restrictions were added in ExtremeXOS 11.1.

The ipv4 keyword was added in ExtremeXOS 11.2.

The vr option was added in ExtremeXOS 12.1.2.

Platform Availability

This command is available on the Summit X450-G2, X460-G2, X670-G2, X770, and ExtremeSwitching X440-G2, X620, X690, X870 series switches.
