It is also a very common best practice for operators to propagate various additional route information between internal peers. The most common tool used today to attach various information about routes is through the use of BGP communities. This document defines a new encoding which will enhance and simplify what can be accomplished today with the use of BGP communities. The most important addition this specification makes over currently defined BGP communities is the ability to specify and advertise an operator's parameters for execution It also provides an extensible platform for any future community encoding requirements.}, }
