Hi Robert, Briefly continuing the earlier discussion for originating routers - stub networks which exclusively receive a default route from my full table router don't have complete AS_PATH information. That means the device won't be able to determine whether or not the configured GA field corresponds to an ASN in the DFZ. If we decide (on a protocol level) to filter the LC information on the receiving LC-speaking BGP router instead of the originating router you'd limit the transitivity and therefore the usefulness of the Large Community feature. Let's say that AS65500 wants to send a community via AS49544 to AS2914. Upon receipt of the BGP_UPDATE, the AS49544 router will check the Large Community attribute and notice that 2914:x:y is attached while AS2914 is not in the AS_PATH. It would then have to strip the Large Community and AS2914 would never receive the Large Community attribute. Simply stating that "implementations MUST allow the operator to specify any value for the Global Administrator field" is the correct way forward, the suggested SHOULD wording either can't be enforced by vendor-side checks (and therefore belongs in a BCP/GROW document), or is - in the way you've suggested it - in direct conflict with the intended use of the Global Administrator field.
