Try instead of none, setting to community internet.

Subject: BGP community NO_EXPORT

Hello,

I have configured bgp on three routers with AS 300, AS 100 and AS 200

300<->100<->200

The 3.0.0.0 network from AS 300 is advertised with Community attribute
set to NO_EXPORT , however I want to remove the attribute at the transit
AS 100 so that it can be sent to AS 200

The incoming route-map at 100 is as below

router bgp 100

 bgp log-neighbor-changes

 bgp dampening

 network 1.1.1.1 mask 255.255.255.255

 neighbor 192.168.10.2 remote-as 200

 neighbor 192.168.100.1 remote-as 300

 neighbor 192.168.100.1 route-map ex in

access-list 3 permit 3.0.0.0

route-map ex permit 10

 match ip address 3

 set community none

The problem with the "community none" command is that the route 3.0.0.0
doesn't leave AS 100 and the show ip bgp 3.0.0.0 displays the following.

BGP routing table entry for 3.0.0.0/8, version 2

Paths: (1 available, best #1, table Default-IP-Routing-Table, not
advertised to

EBGP peer)

  Not advertised to any peer

  300

    192.168.100.1 from 192.168.100.1 (3.3.3.4)

      Origin incomplete, metric 0, localpref 100, valid, external, best

Could anyone shed some light on the above, why does the route show "Not
advertised to any peer" .

BTW, I can set "community internet" to send the route to AS 200.

Thanks

Sunil
