Dynamic Leaking
Route Leaking enables communication between isolated (virtual) routing domains by segregating and sharing a set of services that are available on one routing domain with other virtual domains. Inter-VRF route leaking enables a VRF to leak or export routes in its router to one or more VRFs. Dynamic route leaking enables a source VRF to share both its connected routes as well as dynamically learned routes from protocols such as ISIS, OSPF, and BGP to destination VRFs.
