There must be other things in the AS_PATH than just AS600.
^600$ matches a string containing ONLY 600
_600$ matches a string ending in 600 (and preceded by a separator...) This
includes a string containing only 600.

Subject: BGP regexp syntax help
When using the following config for an as-path filter to filter all
routes originating from AS600 to remote AS 500, BGP ends up denying
everyting.
router bgp 100
no synchronization
bgp confederation identifier 666
neighbor 172.16.4.5 remote-as 500
neighbor 172.16.4.5 filter-list 1 out
neighbor 172.16.10.1 remote-as 100
neighbor 172.16.10.1 next-hop-self
!
ip classless
ip as-path access-list 1 deny ^600$
ip as-path access-list 1 permit .*
I then change the ip as-path access-list to deny _600$ instead of deny
^600$ and BGP filters all routes originating from AS 600 and allows
everything else. Can someone explain why _600$ works and ^600$ does
not?
Thanks.
