This is a limit on number of PBR route-map sequences. Each sequence 
can have a match statement pointing to an ACL of arbitrary size.

This limitation would essentially restrict you to 23 unique sets of 
next-hops (ie, each sequence can set 1 or more next-hops) for each 
set of match criteria (ACL).

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Tim
