DOI: 10.17487/RFC8642
Well-known BGP communities are manipulated differently across various
current implementations, resulting in difficulties for operators.
Network operators should deploy consistent community handling across
their networks while taking the inconsistent behaviors from the
various BGP implementations into consideration. This document
recommends specific actions to limit future inconsistency: namely,
BGP implementors must not create further inconsistencies from this
point forward. These behavioral changes, though subtle, actually
update RFC 1997.
This document is a product of the Global Routing Operations Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the
standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this
memo is unlimited.
This announcement is sent to the IETF-Announce and rfc-dist lists.
