Abstract
Network routes are assessed using a routing policy. The routing policy includes policy directives. A point of application in a policy directive specifies a program statement that can be immediately executed without having to make a function call. Stated differently, the program statement can be immediately executed from the point of application in the policy directive without the program statement having to be incorporated in a function.
