Re: [j-nsp] ACL for lo0 template/example comprehensive list of 'things to think about'?

I personally love the "apply path" commands with wildcards

Therefore it ONLY looks for peers in your configuration ....

set policy-options prefix-list bgp-addresses apply-path \"protocols bgp 
group <*> neighbor <*>\"
set policy-options prefix-list dns-addresses apply-path \"system 
name-server <*>\"
set policy-options prefix-list ntp-addresses apply-path \"system ntp 
server <*>\"
set policy-options prefix-list radius-addresses apply-path \"system 
radius-server <*>\"
set policy-options prefix-list tacacs-addresses apply-path \"system 
tacplus-server <*>\"


cheers
