Usage
Information
The first time you enter this command it configures the neighbor as a route reflector and members of the
route-reflector cluster. Internal BGP (IBGP) speakers do not need to be fully meshed if you configure a
route reflector.
When all clients of a route reflector are disabled, the neighbor is no longer a route reflector.

attribute belong to the same community grouping.
C-Series, E-Series
Syntax
neighbor {ipv6-address | peer-group-name} send-community
To disable sending a COMMUNITY attribute, use the no neighbor {ipv6-address | peer-
group-name} send-community command.
Parameters
ipv6-address
Enter the IPv6 address in the x:x:x:x::x format.
NOTE: The :: notation specifies successive hexadecimal fields of zeros.
peer-group-name
Enter the name of the peer group to send a COMMUNITY attribute to all routers
within the peer group.
