neighbor send-community

Use this command to specify that a community attribute should be sent to a BGP neighbor.
Use the no parameter with this command to remove the entry. Use the extended and no
parameters to remove extended communities. Specifying no other parameter with no
removes standard communities only.
Syntax
neighbor <neighborid> send-community {both|extended|standard}
no neighbor <neighborid> send-community {both|extended|standard}
Parameter
<neighborid>
both
extended
standard
Both standard and extended community attributes are sent to a neighbor.
Default
Router mode and Address Family [ipv4 unicast | ipv4 multicast] mode
Mode
This command is used to specify a community attribute to be sent to a neighbor. The
Usage
community attribute groups destinations in a certain community and applies routing decisions
according to those communities. On receiving community attributes the router reannounces
them to the neighbor. Only when the no parameter is used with this command the community
attributes are not reannounced to the neighbor.
By default, both standard and extended community attributes are sent to a neighbor. To
explicitly send only the standard or extended community attribute, run the bgp config-
type command with the standard parameter, before running this command.
Example
awplus(config-router)#
bgp config-type
