I was hoping to use BGP communities with a backup link, to try to get certain types of traffic which are prefering the backup, to go to my primary.
I had hoped to use BGP communities to do this, but I found that BGP communities do not support 4 byte ASN, and my backup path provider has a 4 byte ASN. Is there a mechanism around this in ROS? Another method? With IOS and JUNOS there are some extended community list types that allow this (but are apparently not universally supported). I suspect that the answer is "no, you just can't use 4 bytes with communities", hopefully somebody can shine some light? -- ----------------------------------------------- - Nick Bright - - Vice President of Technology - - Valnet -=- We Connect You -=- - - Tel 888-332-1616 x 315 / Fax 620-331-0789 - - Web http://www.valnet.net/ - ----------------------------------------------- - Are your files safe? - - Valnet Vault - Secure Cloud Backup - - More information & 30 day free trial at - - http://www.valnet.net/services/valnet-vault - ----------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Mikrotik-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/mikrotik-users
