PBR (Policy-Based Routing) enables precise control over network traffic by defining routing policies based on criteria like source/destination IP addresses or layer 4 port numbers. This capability resolves challenges related to inefficient network resource management, providing organizations with greater flexibility and control over traffic routing and optimization.
By defining routing policies, you can route traffic over preferred network paths, prioritize certain types of traffic, or balance traffic across multiple links for load balancing and optimization purposes.
PBR can be used to implement Quality of Service (QoS) policies to prioritize critical traffic types, such as voice or video communications, over less time-sensitive traffic.
