neighbor send-community (BGP and BGP4+)
Use this command to specify that a community attribute should be sent to a BGP or
BGP4+ neighbor.
Use the no variant of this command to remove the entry for the community attribute.
Syntax [BGP/BGP4+] neighbor <neighborid> send-community {both|extended|standard}
no neighbor <neighborid> send-community {both|extended|standard}
Default [BGP/BGP4+]
Both standard and extended community attributes are sent to a neighbor.
Mode [BGP] Router Configuration or IPv4 Address Family Configuration for a VRF instance
Mode [BGP4+] Router Configuration and IPv6 Address Family Configuration
Usage [BGP/BGP4+] This command is used to specify a community attribute to be sent to a neighbor. The
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.
