I do not believe community is a must here. Any match will do. If you match
community, it is a four octet number, which can be represented in different
forms. New way to write community down is AS:NN, where AS is an autonomous
system number and NN is a number within this AS. As far as IOS concerned a
number is a number just now written differently; but it helps ISPs to
administer the community, and when number of ISP peer each one have a
diapason of communities to administer, without having to agree with one
another. As regular expressions can be used to match communities in new
format, which greatly simplifies manipulation.

Best regards

Subject: BGP Route dampening - Selective

Hi Group,
 
I had done a lab on route-dampening and found it working fine for a simple
route dampening.
 
We can also selectively dampen the routes by putting a route-map on the bgp
configuration. the configuration says that we have to configure a community
for each selective route dampening.
 
ip community-list 8 permit 1:80
ip community-list 10 permit 1:200
 
route-map damp permit 10
match community 8
set dampening 5 750 2000 10
 
Can anybody tell me what exactly 1:80 or 1:200 is ?

how does this do selective dampening.
 
Cheers
Raj
