Examples

Example-1: This data model creates the Context1 tag and assigns it a value of 112233. When applied to a specific VRF, it attaches a 32-bit tag to routes during redistribution into supported protocols. This tag serves as an identifier to prevent routing loops. Additionally, Route Tag Policies allow customization of the tag value on a per-VRF basis, which is essential in multi-VRF environments where transit routes are learned from multiple VRFs.
