Policy-based routing on 3560

[volleyman]

I am attempting some policy based routing on a 3560 switch. I am trying to send all traffic destined for a specific host to a certain next hop. here are the steps that I followed:

1. created an acl: access-list 131 permit ip any host x.x.x.x

2. created the route map:
route-map nameofthemap permit 10
match ip address 131
set ip next-hop 10.x.x.x

3. apply it to an interface:
int vlan 160
ip policy route-map nameofthemap

at this point is where I have the issue. the command executes without error, but when I do a show interface on the vlan, I don't see the command. Also, testing is showing that the PBR isn't working at all. I attempted to apply it to 2 diff. vlan interfaces.

any help would be appreciated.

Is this device the default gateway for Vlan 160?

That blows my mind...

Take a look at this article: [URL unfurl="true"]http://www.booches.nl/2008/06/30/policy-based-routing-catalyst-3560[/url]

It seems to apply to your situation.

I opened a tac case and they asked me to run a sdm command. It requires a reload to take affect so I'm waiting on that...

I noticed when I run the "show sdm prefer" command as mentioned in the article it doesn't show any memory allocated to PBR.

will post results after I am able to reload the switch.

I just never had to do that before. The article I pointed to talks about running the sdm command to allocate memory to PBR.

tac had me run a "sdm prefer route" command and reload the switch...that worked...
