Hi sir, Thank you for the explanation
Your script works. Just started using bird 6 month ago, and found out it is super cool. Many thanks.

Filter itself does not contain values. You need to apply it to some community list first. Still you'll get a community list as a result. But you can pick "data2" only from a single community. If you have or expect only one community matching the filter and can ignore other values, you can use min/max operators to take a single community from the list. But be aware that an empty list will yield you an error here, so you need to check fist that there is something there. Please also pay attention that you use a legacy syntax for definition of block variables and function. Not sure that I fully got you idea, but you can check this piece of code: if (bgp_large_community ~ [(65535, 1000, *)]) then { int peeras = filter(bgp_large_community, [(65535, 1000, *)]).min.data2; bgp_large_community.delete([(65535, *, *)]); bgp_large_community.add(( 64512, 101, peeras )); accept; # not sure if it is good to accept/reject in a function } Regards, Alexander On Tue, Feb 20, 2024 at 9:12 AM Ilham Maulana <[email protected] [mailto:[email protected]]> wrote: Hi, Thanks for the reply. Here's what i'm going to do. -------------------------- function is_to_some_ixp_comm() int peeras; { peeras = ([(65535, 1000, *)].data2); if bgp_large_community ~ ([( 65535,1000,peeras)]) then { bgp_large_community.delete([(65535,*,*)]); bgp_large_community.add (( 64512,101,peeras )); accept; } } ------------------------------------- i want to copy third community value from if statement, and adding it another community. but that function gives me error. No methods defined for type set is that possible using bird? Thanks.

For example we basically replicate the Euro-IX routeserver announcement control communities inside our network, and we use the following function to translate them when exporting routes to a (supporting) route server # Translate Euro-IX common communities for use by a route server function translate_routeserver_communities( int dest_asn ) { lclist announce_controls = filter(bgp_large_community, [(OURAS, 0..1, *)]); for lc c in announce_controls do { bgp_large_community.add((dest_asn, c.data1, c.data2)); } lclist prepends = filter(bgp_large_community, [(OURAS, 101..103, *)]); for lc c in prepends do { bgp_large_community.add((dest_asn, c.data1, c.data2)); } } (I think we could combine those into one with a filter(bgp_large_community, [(OURAS, 0..1, *), (OURAS, 101..103, *)])? This code originally looked slightly different and at the time combining these wasn't posible. Note that this doesn't strip the input communities - we do that as a separate step later where we strip all non-informational communities - Erin On Tue, 20 Feb 2024, at 00:30, Ilham Maulana wrote: Hi, Is it possible in bird to copy specific value inside BGP Community? Example: Route 1, Community (a,b,c) -> inbound Route 2, Community (a,b,d) -> inbound -- Route 1, Community (k,l,c) -> outbound Route 2, Community (k,l,d) -> outbound The specific value I want to preserve is c and d, and it is dynamic variable. whatever c and d inbound, copy to c and d outbound.
