EIGRP route-map question

[newbobbys9]

I have a group of external servers I want access to. When I set up a route-map specifying an access list, I can get to them. Problem is it never gets to the set ip next-hop command (the next statement for the route-map). It appears that I can only have one policy route-map for an interface. If I remove the match to the access list, I get Internet, but not to our servers. I need a way to have an either/or. I fouond an ip policy-list command, but it indicates it is used in a BGP route map. Does anyone know how I can get to both?

Hi.

From the info you've provided, it's difficult to understand whether policy based routing is appropriate or not. However can you not just put a better match IP route(s) for the servers on the router in question? It's likely your internet connection has a default route so any better-matching routes will always override this route.

If this idea is not applicable, more info may be useful including a current routing table output (show ip route) and an idea what the server IP addresses are.

Thanks for the reply, KiscoKid. I got it!!! Here is how I was able to make it work: The interface for Internet Had a route-map named internet-traffic-outbound that had two commands--a match ip address 97, and a next-hop to our ISP border router. Turns out that to use a match ip address, it needs to be an extended access-list--the standard would never have worked. Further, the processing of route-maps is also important. So to get it to work I used 2 route-maps with 2 precedence numbers. The first sets the next-hop to the ISP, and the next command uses an extended access-list that defines our address range with a wildcard mask to include all our available addresses on the Internet.
