Usage Guidelines

A valid egress name must be provided. The reserved name, all cannot be used for configuration.

An egress name must be unique. An error is thrown if you try to use the same name for an egress as for an egress group.

The following reserved keywords cannot be used as name identifiers: all, ingress-group, egress, egress-group, match, list, access-list, route-map, and listener-policy.

The no egress name command clears all objects of the given type.
