Routing Policy and Firewall Filters

Support for the IPv6 unicast address-specific BGP extended community attribute (PTX10001-36MR, PTX10004, PTX10008, and QFX5130-32CD)—Starting in Junos OS Evolved Release 23.1R1, we support the IPv6 unicast address-specific BGP extended community attribute. You can configure the VRF route target with the IPv6 extended community. You can encode each IPv6 unicast address-specific extended community as a 20-octet file.

To accommodate the IPv6 unicast address-specific extended community, set the IPv6 community configuration under the [edit policy-options] hierarchy, and set the following configuration statements in the [edit policy-options community community-name members] hierarchy:

• ipv6-target:<IPv6 unicast address>:operator-defined local values

• ipv6-origin:<IPv6 unicast address>:operator-defined local values

• ipv6-extended:type-and-subtype value:<IPv6 unicast address>:operator-defined local values
