Question about filter with BGP Communities and BGP Extended Communities

[Lucenildo Lins Aquino Júnior]

Hi All,

I am run bird for lab and I am with a difficult to create a filter with
bgp communities and bgp extended communities.

In my filter at first I check if router need go only for peer ASN, note
that is a export filter. If not only for peer ASN and have
only-community (65001:* or ro:65001:*) drop this route.

I was executed troubleshooting and I could determinate that problem is
in this operation: "(([(65001,*)] ~ bgp_community) || ([(ro,65001,*)] ~
bgp_ext_community))".

I think in this regular expression have a problem, that case create a
fault in my if-clause. I operate my bird in mode router-server, to
simulate a IXP.

In this test my other client announce a router without community
65001:*. and in import filter with ASN 61580 I am accept all routes .

Thanks,

Lucenildo Lins
