Route Server Control

You may use BGP Standard/Extended/Large Communities to control route advertisement via the route servers:

• (63034:63034), (63034:1:0): Redistribute to all route server peers (default)

• (63034:$PEER-AS), (rt:63034:$PEER-AS), (63034:1:63034): Redistribute to $PEER-AS

• (0:$PEER-AS), (rt:0:$PEER-AS), (63034:0:$PEER-AS): Do not redistribute to $PEER-AS

• (0:63034), (63034:0:0): Do not redistribute

If $PEER-AS uses a 16b ASN, you may use Standard, Extended or Large Communities

If $PEER-AS uses a 32b ASN, you have to use Extended or Large Communities

There are additional communities for controlling announcements:
