Both discuss the idea about NOT sending routes out to eBGP peers. But
"no-export" WILL still send to eBGP confederation peers (that line of
external is a little blurred).

The "local-as" will not send to ANY other AS, whether a confederation peer
or not.

Hi All,

This may be an easy question, but whats the difference between the BGP
community Local-AS and No-export?

Rack1R6(config-route-map)#set community ?
  <1-4294967295> community number
  aa:nn community number in aa:nn format
  additive Add to the existing community
  internet Internet (well-known community)
  local-AS Do not send outside local AS (well-known community)
  no-advertise Do not advertise to any peer (well-known community)
  no-export Do not export to next AS (well-known community)

From the description above it sounds like it will do the same thing. I have
3 routers in the same AS, but each router is also linked to another AS. The
goal was to stop all prefixes being advertised from one AS out to another. I
used local-AS, but the solution guide used no-export.
