Correct answer & explanation
Create prefix-list or AS-path ACL
First, you create the prefix-list or AS-path ACL to match routes. Then you define the route-map with match and set clauses. Next, you apply the route-map to a neighbor under the BGP address-family. After that, you clear the BGP session to apply the policy. Finally, you verify the policy effect with show ip bgp.
