Hello,
I am trying to prepend out routes using one of my upstream providers. I was told by the ISP that I needed to do this using a set community command. In order to prepend routes to this ISP i was instructed to use as example 1234:XXX (where 1234:2 would prepend 2 times, 1234:3 three times, etc.
I added set community 1234:2 to my out going route map, but now my config shows the following:
set community 283312130 and therefore my routes are not prepending out this ISP connection.
Any one seen this before or am I just doing something incorrectly?
thanks

Jesse,
You need to use the "ip bgp-community new-format" in order to see the community in the
The reason the prepending is not taking place has nothing to do with this though. You need to configure "neighbor x.x.x.x send-community" for the community to be sent to the peer (upstream provider in this case). Setting it in the route-map alone will not do it.
