[j-nsp] Dynamic route leaking between global routing table and vrf routing table

Chris,

Thanks for your help. The interface routes did the trick. I forgot those in my previous try with rib-groups.

I do want to mention that when you configure a rib-group for a certain bgp group. The learned routes from neighbors within that bgp group will be
placed in inet.0. Although your rib-policy configured in your your rib-group might reject all routes. I did not expect this to happen but it works for us.

Regards,
