How to define keepout area (blockage) in Cadence Virtuoso Router (VSR)

Mamad

Hi,

I am routing with VSR in Cadence GXL layout. In Virtuoso Chip assembly Router there is an option to define the keepout area. 

I don't know how to define a blockage in VSR. 

Would you please help me to define a blockage in my layout? 

Thanks

    Create->P&R Objects->Blockage. Then hit F3 to define the layers and type of blockage you want (it should be a routing blockage).
