Folks,
  I have simple scenario where I want to set ext community for BGP between two IBGP peers
   
  one of the peers is advertising directely connected network (LB), I use the network command under BGP with assigned route-map where it sets the extcommunity attribule ...both routers have the bgp community new-format and neighbor send-community both is there
   
  for some reason , when i set the standard community ..i can see it on the other side ..while when i do the same for ext community ..i cannot see it !
   
  I have two questions here
  first what is the difference between communities and ext communities ??
  second is there anything missing to set the ext community beside the neigbor send-community both command ?
   
  thanks
