Administrator Guide

All routes with the NO_EXPORT (0xFFFFFF01) community attribute must not be advertised outside a
BGP boundary, but are sent to CONFED-EBGP and IBGP peers.
The Dell Networking OS also supports BGP Extended Communities as described in RFC 4360 — BGP
Extended Communities Attribute.
To configure an IP community list, use these commands.
1 Create a community list and enter COMMUNITY-LIST mode.
CONFIGURATION mode
ip community-list community-list-name
2 Configure a community list by denying or permitting specific community numbers or types of
community.
CONFIG-COMMUNITYLIST mode
{deny | permit} {community-number | local-AS | no-advertise | no-export |
quote-regexp regular-expression-list | regexp regular-expression}
community-number: use AA:NN format where AA is the AS number (2 Bytes or 4 Bytes) and NN is
a value specific to that autonomous system.
local-AS: routes with the COMMUNITY attribute of NO_EXPORT_SUBCONFED.
no-advertise: routes with the COMMUNITY attribute of NO_ADVERTISE.
no-export: routes with the COMMUNITY attribute of NO_EXPORT.
quote-regexp: then any number of regular expressions. The software applies all regular
expressions in the list.
regexp: then a regular expression.
Example of the show ip community-lists Command
To view the configuration, use the show config command in CONFIGURATION COMMUNITY-LIST or
CONFIGURATION EXTCOMMUNITY LIST mode or the
show ip {community-lists | extcommunity-
list} command in EXEC Privilege mode.
