Hi, The text refering to reference 9, and reference 9 itself seems wrongly titled: those Large BGP Communities Beacons were my personal project. I was originating routes with large communities from my home router. :-) In that time period, members of my household noticed they couldn't reach certain websites, and that observatoin led to the discovery there was squatting of BGP codepoints: http://largebgpcommunities.net/2016/new-path-attribute-value/ Eventually much more codepoint assignment issues were uncovered, and the registries were updated accordingly: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8093 Kind regards, Job
