Free Range Cloud supports a limited number of control communities for customes. This list will be expanded upon over time.
In general, communities for our upstream networks and IX's will be propagated - we do not delibrately strip communities from our upstream announcements.
In order to block your announcement from reaching a particular upstream network, please add the following community:
53356:XYZZZ
Where:
We currently have the following upstream network ID's assigned:
001 AS6939
002 AS60011
003 AS54133
004 AS396503
005 AS394256
006 AS62513
007 AS33554
008 A25682
009 AS50673
010 AS56655
011 FCIX Route Servers (Fremont)
012 AS12186
013 AS19969
014 AS6424
015 Speed IX Route Servers (Amsterdam)
016 UNMETERED Route Servers (Vancouver)
017 CSIX Route Servers (Vancouver)
018 KCIX Route Servers (Kansas City)
019 TORIX Route Srvers (Toronto)
For example, if you wanted to disable announcements to Hurricane Electric you would add the following community to your announcement:
53356:19001
You can also prepend AS53356 to your announcement to one of our upstream networks if desired. The format is:
53356:XYZZZ
Where:
The upstream network ID's are the same as above. So, to prepend twice to AS12212 you would add the community:
53356:12007
To prepend once to the FCIX route servers you would add the following community:
53356:11011
We also tag routes depending on which transit or IXP it originates from. We will tag routes in the following format:
53356:XYZZZ
