BGP Extended Communities (RFC 4360)
BGP Extended Communities, as defined in RFC 4360, is an optional transitive BGP attribute.
BGP Extended Communities provides two major advantages over Standard Communities:
The range is extended from 4-octet (AA:NN) to 8-octet (Type:Value) to provide enough number communities.
Communities are structured using a new Type field (1 or 2-octets), allowing you to provide granular control/filter routing
information based on the type of extended communities.
deny
To reject (deny) from the two types of extended communities, route origin (rt) or site-of-origin (soo), use this feature.
Z-Series
Syntax
deny {rt | soo} {as4 ASN4:NN | ASN:NNNN | IPADDR:NN}
To remove (delete) the rule, use the no deny {rt | soo} {as4 ASN4:NN | ASN:NNNN |
IPADDR:NN} command.
Parameters
