BGP Community Information

Learn about BGP Community features and configurations that AdKyNet SAS supports.

What is BGP Community?

BGP Community is a powerful feature of the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) that allows network operators to tag routes with specific attributes. These tags can be used for various purposes, such as traffic engineering, route filtering, and policy enforcement. By using BGP Communities, network operators can manage their routing policies more effectively and optimize the performance of their networks.
