Here is some text from the documentation : 3.3 Protocol Options

    import all | none | filter name | filter { filter commands } | ...
        Specify a filter to be used for filtering routes coming from the
        protocol to the routing table. all is shorthand for where true and
        none is shorthand for where false. Default: all.
    export filter
        This is similar to the import keyword, except that it works in the
        direction from the routing table to the protocol. Default: none.

In my case, the protocol is OSPF. I want to copy routes learned by the
protocol to the routing table. The documentation says to use import
but you are saying export. Which is correct?
