BGP Selective Download
BGP-SD, use a route-map (table-map) to filter which BGP routes are installed into FIB (currently only supported for the IPv4 unicast GRT address-family, for VPNv4 address-family routes all routes are installed into FIB).
1st Note:
When the table-map command is used without the filter keyword, the route map referenced in the table-map command is used to set certain properties (such as the traffic index) of the routes for installation into the RIB. The route is always downloaded, regardless of whether it is permitted or denied by the route map.
When the table-map command is used with the filter keyword, the route map referenced is also used to control whether a BGP route is to be downloaded to the RIB (hence the filter). A BGP route is not downloaded to the RIB if it is denied by the route map.
2nd Note:
When using a table-map to partially filter bgp-to-fib updates, any routes required for path next-hop reachability must be allowed in if the next-hop isn't in the IGP.
