Abstract
A routing policy includes policy directives and policy functions. Execution of the routing policy includes invoking a policy function at a point of application in a policy directive. Execution of the invoked policy function can include making any number of nested function calls. When an EXIT statement is encountered in a nested policy function, execution of the policy function terminates and execution of the routing policy continues immediately with the policy directive following the point of application, irrespective of how deeply nested in the invocation hierarchy the policy function is.
