URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4384.txt
BGP communities (RFC 1997) are used by service providers for many
purposes, including tagging of customer, peer, and geographically
originated routes. Such tagging is typically used to control the
scope of redistribution of routes within a provider\'s network and to
its peers and customers. With the advent of large-scale BGP data
collection (and associated research), it has become clear that the
information carried in such communities is essential for a deeper
understanding of the global routing system. This memo defines
standard (outbound) communities and their encodings for export to BGP
route collectors. This document specifies an Internet Best Current
Practices for the Internet Community, and requests discussion and
suggestions for improvements.
This document is a product of the Global Routing Operations Working Group of the IETF.
This announcement is sent to the IETF list and the RFC-DIST list.
Requests to be added to or deleted from the IETF distribution list
