Hi,

I am reviewing route-maps and there is an option called "tag" . That is you
could set a tag. You can also match on a tag.

You can set a tag on a static route:

ip route prefix mask {address | interface} [distance] [tag tag] [permanent]

You can set a tag on a redistribute command:

redistribute protocol [process-id] {level-1 | level-1-2 | level-2} [metric
   metric-value] [metric-type type-value] [match internal | external
type-value] [tag
   tag-value] [route-map map-tag] [weight weight] [subnets]

Does anyone know what these tags are? How are they suppose to be used? Are
they numeric?
