The community value is still a 32-bit number whether you express it as a
single number between 1 and 4.2 billion, or whether you express it in the
#:# format.
The binary value is still the same 32-bits in BGP though.

Subject: Community New Format vs No Export/Advertise
I just can't get my arms around how to use and implement a community new
format number. I've looked at Halabi and the BGP section of the TCP/IP
book, but can't find a reasonable amount of information to see how the new
format can be implemented. Sounds kinda basic, I know - but when I try it
in the lab the route I assign a new-format number to is not advertised to my
neighbor. Is there an assumption that when using the new-format numbering
the community is also no-export?
Thanks!
