A clever trick, but not a good fit for Large BGP Communities. Large BGP
Communities are opaque, by definition and design.

We want routing policy in which networks can send 2914:X:Y to us, and we
can send 2914:A:B to them - very much like RFC 1997 communities. The
Global Administator field does not necessarily contain the ASN of the
sending party.

Kind regards,
