VRF
Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) allows multiple "virtual routers" to exist within a single physical router.
Think of it as "VMWare for ROUTERS" where the physical router will maintain separate and instinct routing tables for each "virtual router". This allows the physical router to store routes and forward packets even if the "virtual routers" are using identical addressing.

Cisco IOS provides many tools to control/filter routing updates and one of them is the Distribute List.
