Hi

I never have required that but I think it cannot, below the only matches:

Router(config-route-map)#match ?
additional-paths  BGP Add-Path match policies
as-path   Match BGP AS path list
clns    CLNS information
community   Match BGP community list
extcommunity   Match BGP/VPN extended community list
interface    Match first hop interface of route
ip   IP specific information
ipv6    IPv6 specific information
length    Packet length
local-preference    Local preference for route
mdt-group    Match routes corresponding to MDT group
metric    Match metric of route
mpls-label    Match routes which have MPLS labels
policy-list    Match IP policy list
route-type   Match route-type of route
rpki   Match RPKI state of route

thks ,

do you know GTT communities ? 

check the following LINK : https://www.gtt.net/services/internet-services/ip-transit/bgp-communities/

i m intending to to design a community list like GTT for my own AS, 

i was thinking if Cisco router route-map can call another route-map,  then i dont have to input a template command for every peer of my AS . 

so in this case , do you have any suggestion ?

Hi

Apologies for the late response, I would like to know if you want to get the same community format?

Hello,

If you are trying to build a routing policy for external peering, trying to do what you are trying to do manually won't work - it's too much to manage

You need to have a repository where you can store and modify your communities - generally in the form of RPSL which can auto generate configuration the required route-maps for your customer peerings, as well as peerings with other transit providers.

Trying to call route-maps within route-maps is a recipe for disaster IMHO.
