Hello there, 

Same issue with PHPIPAM. 
RDs are the unique identifier and always mapping towards the VRF name.  You can 
add custom fields to VRFs where you can place your RTs.
If you are running a unique RD per PE the VRF is configured in then the RD is 
not that important anyway it’s the RTs that important. 
We run the above setup and just do a fake RD per VRF since its always changing 
depending on the PE you look at. 
Of course if you really want to do it properly you would probably want to note 
every PEs instance of each VRF together with the RTs to document it properly.

Yes I tried NINAP, but as others IPAM tools out there it has this 1:1 
relationship between VRF and RT

I could hack around this and use the main RT thing as sort of an arbitrary ID 
(or main VRF RT) and add the actual/additional RTs as TAGs.

Tried the same thing in netbox. 

But these are hacks in a sense, working around the base limitation that is 
these DBs are maintaining VRFs and assigning RTs to those -I need it to be the 
other way around. So what I’m looking for is pools of communities for different 
services, utilization of the pools, etc... these are fairly standard things 
offered by IPAM tools for IP resources but when it comes to communities… 

 

But will take a look at the phpipam, thank you.

NIPAP maybe?

Personally I like phpIPAM, it's quite easy to add custom stuff.

Hi folks,

I'm just wondering if anyone happens to know about a tool that can be used to 
manage BGP communities (standard/extended/large communities).

I'd appreciate any pointers

Thanks
