Communities are primarily for tagging and grouping bgp routes... when you
have 250,000 of something this usually makes your life easier...
If I had 250,000 people, as an urban planner I would need communities to
divide up the town, right?
In most organizations this would be over engineering; save the well know
communities. I often use NO ADVERTISE for certain dynamic policy routing.

Subject: Help understanding BGP community
Hello Experts,
Can any one please explain how to use BGP community? I know the basic
understanding of community to influence inbound traffic , why cant we use
MED or AS_ PATH prepend to do that? What's advantages or disadvantages of
one over another?
Any help with example will be highly appreciate.
Thanks,
Ashwani
