[j-nsp] OSPF IMPORT POLICIES

[Phill Jolliffe]

If your end goal is to prevent the ospf prefixes from becoming active
in the PFE on a single chassis for then apply an export policy to the
forwarding table under routing-options. The routes can sit active in
the RIB but never make to the linecard.

This is a dirty hack for several reason. Show route says one thing,
show route forwarding-table another. LSDB looks good but doesn't match
forwarding plane. Neighbor might compute paths across the router you
apply the policy to, forward traffic and be back holed.

That all said a dirty hack is what is needed in till there is time to
re make the world pretty :-)
