Thanks - the exercise is very specific as to the placement of the policy, as
well as the use of set interface over set next-hop. Oddly, the target
subnet is linked to both spokes of the hub, and the exercise has me shutdown
the subnet I/F on the non-target IP. Frame maps is all I see, but it
targets IP addrs, and not the whole subnet, unfortunately.
