Hi,

were running OpenBGPd since a long a time as route servers.

We now want to export certain BGP Communities to all route server peers.

We already set the communities, but according to the documentation,
I'm unsure how to export them to the peers.

We currently use the following config line to set a community e.g.
16374:15 to all peers in the groups "n15-v4" and  "n15-v6"

# remarks:         16374:15   learned at  Location Nonnendammallee 15
match from { group n15-v4,  group n15-v6 }  set community $ASNUM:15


When I look into the prefixes on the production box,
I'll see the correct communitiy, for example:

>bgpctl sh rib as 48173  detail

..
BGP routing table entry for 193.107.120.0/22
    48173
    Nexthop 193.178.185.33 (via 193.178.185.33) from n15-v4-unbelievable
(94.198.63.8)
    Origin IGP, metric 1, localpref 100, external, valid, best
    Last update: 05w2d01h ago
    Communities: 16374:15
..


When the connected peers look into their prefixes received from the route
server,
they don't see these  communities.

My question: What's the most efficient way
to export these communities to all my peers, now ?


Thanks in advance, Thorleif
