seq sequence-number {deny |

min-prefix-length] [le
max-prefix-length]
If you want to forward all routes that do not match the prefix list criteria, you must configure a prefix list
filter to permit all routes (permit 0.0.0.0/0 le 32). The “permit all” filter should be the last filter in your
prefix list. To permit the default route only, enter permit 0.0.0.0/0.
Figure 61 illustrates how the seq command orders the filters according to the sequence number assigned.
In the example, filter 20 was configured before filter 15 and 12, but the show config command displays
the filters in the correct order.
Figure 61 Command Example: seq
Force10(conf-nprefixl)#seq 20 permit 0.0.0.0/0 le 32
Force10(conf-nprefixl)#seq 12 deny 134.23.0.0 /16
Force10(conf-nprefixl)#seq 15 deny 120.23.14.0 /8 le 16

CONFIG-NPREFIXL Create a prefix list with a sequence
number and a deny or permit action. The
optional parameters are:
• ge min-prefix-length: is the minimum
prefix length to be matched (0 to 32).
• le max-prefix-length: is the maximum
prefix length to be matched (0 to 32).
Note the last line in the prefix list Juba contains a “permit all” statement. By including this line in a prefix
list, you specify that all routes not matching any criteria in the prefix list are forwarded.
To delete a filter, use the no seq sequence-number command in the PREFIX LIST mode.
If you are creating a standard prefix list with only one or two filters, you can let FTOS assign a sequence
number based on the order in which the filters are configured. The FTOS assigns filters in multiples of
five.
To configure a filter without a specified sequence number, use these commands in the following sequence
starting in the CONFIGURATION mode:
