bgpd: Add support for BGP Large Communities
As described by Michael Lambert <lambert@psc.edu> to the list:
Traditional communities are four-octet entities to support two-octet ASNs
and are usually represented as <asn>:<data>. Large communities are an
enhancement to support four-octet ASNs and are 12 octets long, represented
as <asn>:<data-1>:<data-2>.
This issue has been tracked in quagga bugzilla ticket #875, which documents
some of the usage and indicates that some testing has been done.
TODO: Documentation - update doc/bgpd.texi.
* bgp_attr.{c,h}: Add BGP_ATTR_LARGE_COMMUNITIES codepoint. Add
(struct lcommunity *) to (struct bgp_attr_extra).
* bgp_clist.{c,h}: Large community codepoints and routines.
* bgp_route.c: Display support.
* bgp_routemap.c: 'match lcommunity', 'set large-community' and
'set large-comm-list'
* bgp_vty.c: Peer configuration, add 'large' to 'neighbor send-community ..'.
Add "show ip bgp large-community", ""ip large-community-list ...".
