Configure Extended Community Lists
Configure community lists to specify permitted routes by BGP extended community attributes, including route targets and sites of origin (SOO). This list acts as a filter that matches route targets and SOO.
Before you begin
-
Configure BGP on a VRF instance the same way you configure the GlobalRouter, except that you must use VRF Router Configuration mode and the prefix ip bgp. The VRF must have an RP Trigger of BGP.
Note
Route refresh is not currently supported on non-default VRFs.
Procedure
Example
Create an extended community list based on the route target attribute:
Switch(config)# ip extcommunity-list 1 memberid 234 rt 192.0.2.1 5 soo 32 45
