Understanding Policy Based Routing (PBR)

With Policy Based Routing (PBR), you can set up routing based on criteria other than the destination network; PBR allows you to route traffic based on source address, source port, destination address, destination port, protocol, or a combination of these.

The primary purpose of Policy-Based Routing (PBR) is to provide network administrators with greater flexibility and control over how data packets are routed within a network. This goes beyond the limitations of traditional routing protocols which rely on destination IP addresses.
