[c-nsp] prefix-list/route-map quandry

[Ian Dickinson]

You're matching and accepting the default route, but the implicit
deny on the end of the route-map is killing the customer routes.
Simple fix is to add the following and you'll be sorted.

route-map he-def-prepend permit 100

There are many other approaches to this too.
