Route-Server BGP Communities
TorIX offers a rich set of BGP communities for peers using our Route-Servers. By tagging your prefixes with specific communities, you can influence how and to whom the Route-Servers advertise your prefixes to. Once you are connected, feel free to contact the TorIX Operations team if you want to learn more about using our BGP communities. However if you find yourself wanting to use many BGP communities per prefix, we ask that you contact us first as there may be more efficient ways to accomplish what you wish to do.
