BGP Communities And Basic Security, JATIN MEHTA (TARA CONSULTANTS PVT. LTD., India). Why using BGP communities?
Communities can be used to mark a set of prefixes that share a common property. Upstream providers can use these marks to apply a common routing policy such as filtering or assigning a specific local preference.
As a service provider you can make an agreement with your customers on a specific policy to be applied to their prefixes using communities; this gives your customers the freedom to change the policy of a prefix just by changing the community attribute value with no support from your side..
