2.2.1.2.261 BGP_POLICY

The BGP_POLICY structure<190> is used to get or set the policy configuration of a BGP speaker. A policy can be composed of zero or more Match clauses and one or more Action clauses. All the Match clauses are always grouped in logical AND. Similarly, all the Action clauses are always grouped in logical AND. Action clauses are applied only if all the Match clauses are satisfied.
