RE: BGP filtering without IP address FiltersHi,

The main difference between no-export and no-advertise is as follows.

When no-export community is set in an AS for a route it will be passed through
all the routers in the same AS (IBGP) and also to the next neighbour AS
(EBGP). However, this neighbour AS will not pass it to its up stream AS.

Thus no-exports cannot work in the same AS.

When you set no-advertise community on a router in any AS, the route will not
be advertised to any neighbour AS whether it is same (IBGP) or different
(EBGP).

e.g. if you have following scenario

R1 (AS100)---R2 (AS100)----R3(AS200)------R4(AS300)

If no-export community is set on a route entering R1. You will see the route
in R2 and R3 but not in R4.

If no-advertise community is set on a route entering R1. The route will be
missing in R2, R3 or R4.

Note: In order for all this to work correctly, ensure setting send-community
to the neighour AS peers in each router.

regards
Masood
