Summary
Summary
What you have seen in this chapter is how to treat dynamic routing protocols as a means to automatically distribute routing table information. Through the P olicy Routing extensions you can assign independent routing tables for use on a per-protocol basis. Then all of the Policy Routing power becomes available to you.
As you saw in Chapter 6, the range and flexibility of Policy Routing can work magic. When you couple with this the ability to segregate and distribute the route Triad element through a dynamic protocol, you effectively extend the reach of a single Policy Routing structure to many devices that cannot perform Policy Routing.
You should now be comfortable setting up and running both gated and the Zebra suite on your system. When you couple this with the skills learned in Chapters 5 and 6, you start to see the massive scope of networking under Policy Routing. In the next few chapters you will see how NAT is a function of Policy Routing and then you will learn what the future holds for IPv6 and beyond.
