Concept Guide

route-map map-name [permit | deny] [sequence-number]
2 Congure a match lter for all routes meeting the criteria in the IP community or IP extended community list.
CONFIG-ROUTE-MAP mode
match {community community-list-name [exact] | extcommunity extcommunity-list-name [exact]}
3 Return to CONFIGURATION mode.
CONFIG-ROUTE-MAP mode
exit
4 Enter ROUTER BGP mode.
CONFIGURATION mode
router bgp as-number
AS-number: 0 to 65535 (2-Byte) or 1 to 4294967295 (4-Byte) or 0.1 to 65535.65535 (Dotted format)
5 Apply the route map to the neighbor or peer group’s incoming or outgoing routes.
CONFIG-ROUTER-BGP mode
neighbor {ip-address | ipv6-address | peer-group-name} route-map map-name {in | out}
Example conguration for ltering routes with community lists
DellEMC# configure terminal
DellEMC(conf)# router bgp 400
DellEMC(conf-router_bgp)# neighbor 10.10.10.1 remote-as 500
DellEMC(conf-router_bgp)# neighbor 10.10.10.1 route-map route2 in
DellEMC(conf-router_bgp)# exit
DellEMC(conf)# route-map route2 permit 10
DellEMC(conf-route-map)# match community 1
DellEMC(conf-route-map)# set community 99
DellEMC(conf-route-map)# exit
DellEMC(conf)# ip community-list 1 permit 100
DellEMC(conf)# exit
DellEMC#
In the above example, add a BGP neighbor to the AS 400 and the route-map called route2 applied to inbound routes from the BGP
neighbor at 10.10.10.1. A route map route2 is created with a permit clause and the routes community attribute is matched to communities
in community list 1. A community list 1 that permits routes with a communities attribute of 100.
To view the BGP conguration, use the show config command in CONFIGURATION ROUTER BGP mode. To view a route map
conguration, use the show route-map command in EXEC Privilege mode.
To view which BGP routes meet an IP community or IP extended community list’s criteria, use the show ip bgp {community-list
| extcommunity-list} command in EXEC Privilege mode.
Manipulating the COMMUNITY Attribute
A COMMUNITY attribute indicates that all the routes with that attribute belong to the same community grouping. In addition to permitting
or denying routes based on the values of the COMMUNITY attributes, you can manipulate the COMMUNITY attribute value and send the
COMMUNITY attribute with the route information.
By default, Dell EMC Networking OS does not send the COMMUNITY attribute to a BGP neighbor or a peer group.
To send the COMMUNITY attribute to BGP neighbors, use the following command.
Enable the software to send the router’s COMMUNITY attribute to the BGP neighbor or peer group specied.
CONFIG-ROUTER-BGP mode
neighbor {ip-address | ipv6-address | peer-group-name} send-community [extended | standard]
