Set-Community failes AS number seems to be to long

[doesterhuizen]

Hi

When I try and set a community on a route-map I get the following error.

hostname (1) # set set-community community Attribute: AA|AA:NN|internet|local-AS|no-advertise|no-export.

hostname (1) # set set-community "0:327782" node_check_object fail! for community 0:327782

When I remove the 2 from community number it works.

I looks like the AS number at the back of the community is to long.

Thanks

It should fail a std  AA and NN is 16bit value so 65535 is the max

Hi

Thanks, so there is no support for 32-bit ASN?

Thanks

In a std community value on left or right side is 16bits. So that's a 32bit total. You have to look at extended communities and do some magic

e.g

2 2 4  octets

2 2 2 octets

4 4 octets

Now I do not know if fortiOS supports extended communities.
