Juniper Exam JN0-281 Topic 2 Question 1 Discussion

In Junos, the default export policy for OSPF is to reject all routes from being exported.

Step-by-Step Breakdown:

Default Export Policy:

By default, OSPF in Junos does not export any routes to other routing protocols or neighbors. This is a safety mechanism to prevent unintended route advertisements.

Custom Export Policies:

If you need to export routes, you must create a custom export policy that explicitly defines which routes to advertise.

Example: You can create an export policy to redistribute static or connected routes into OSPF.

Juniper Reference:

OSPF Export Behavior: In Juniper devices, the default policy for OSPF is to reject route advertisements unless explicitly configured otherwise through custom policies.
