Change Details

Dear VyOS community, Is there any plan to add support for Large BGP communities (1)? ExaBGP and Cisco (IOS XR) already implemented it (2), other vendors are moving too. Since almost one in four ASNs in the DFZ are 4-byte ASNs, 4-byte ASNs cannot properly use RFC1997 communities - the internet has a problem, especially newcomers. RIPE and ARIN are scraping the bottom of the barrel for 2-byte ASNs (they both only have tens left). The Large BGP Community is specifically designed with simplicity in mind. Will VyOS add support for it? 1) https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-heitz-idr-large-community-03 2) http://largebgpcommunities.net/implementations/
