Question on filter-list config with peer goups

Thu Mar 12 17:51:56 UTC 1998

Don't think you can change the outbound peering policies, but
you can specify the inbound policy individually. Since peer
group is used when the router has a route to send to all the
members of the peer group with just a single copy, otherwise
peer group should not be used.
