Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to routing control functions (RCF functions) and in particular to determining applicability of an RCF function at the time the function is configured in a network device. The determination is made in terms of the attributes referenced in the function and the attributes associated with the point of application (POA) of the function. The attributes at a given POA can differ from one POA to another. An RCF function written for one POA may not be applicable at another POA.
