Notes
# UAE-IX Route Servers
UAE-IX operates three route servers:
* Two conventional route servers (rs1.uae-ix.net and rs2.uae-ix.net)
* A dedicated route server for blackholing announcements (rsbh1.uae-ix.net)
It is advised to peer with all three route servers.

## Route Server Control
You may use BGP Standard or Large Communities to control route redistribution via the route servers:
* **(61374:61374), (61374:1:0):** Redistribute to all route server peers (default)
* **(61374:<peer ASN>), (61374:1:61374):** Redistribute to <peer ASN>
* **(0:<peer ASN>), (61374:0:<peer ASN>):** Do not redistribute to <peer ASN>
* **(0:61374), (61374:0:0):** Do not redistribute
If <peer ASN> uses a 16b ASN, you may use BGP Standard or Large Communities
If <peer ASN> uses a 32b ASN, you have to use BGP Large Communities
There are additional communities for controlling announcements:
* **65535:0** GRACEFUL_SHUTDOWN
* **65535:666** BLACKHOLE
* **61374:65281** NO-EXPORT
* **61374:65282** NO-ADVERTISE
