In Section 2, where the Large Community is defined, it already says this: “The Global Administrator field…SHOULD be an Autonomous System Number (ASN).”  The “SHOULD” leaves the door open for it to be anything.



The text above, which comes later, is just repeating the fact already covered in Section 2.
