Formerly, only two SAVVIS community attribute values were announced to users upon request: 3561:900 (customer routes) and 3561:999 (peer routes). These have been replaced by a new community string implementation.
The new implementation allows for a 5 digit string, following the "3561:" notation. Each bit/digit has a pertinent value and meaning represented in the following tables (3561:xxxxx)
This was facilitated to provide the following routing information to customers receiving a routing table from SAVVIS via eBGP routing.
Identification of route source by
a. Customer or peer
b. Region
- Predefined by SAVVIS
- Based upon physical connection point
c. Country
- Predefined by SAVVIS
- Based upon physical connection point
The format for the second component of customer route community number (after 3561:) is set at five digits. This fixed length allows regular expressions to be used in routing policy statements to select subsets of customer routes. This format is 3561:SRCCC where the fields are coded in the following way.
"S" refers to 'source' of the route:
Source Codes
Code Source
1 Customer
2 Peer
Example: 3561:1xxxx customer route
3561:2xxxx peer route
"R" defines the region, as specified in Table 3-1. Codes 7 through 0 that are not defined yet and thus available for future region definitions. Since there are only four available region codes left, the definition of each code shall await a need for the function it would provide.
Regional Codes
Code Region
1 North America (U.S.A and Canada)
2 Europe
3 Asia (including Japan)
4 Australia
5 South America
6 Middle East

8 Available for future region definitions
9 Available for future region definitions
0 Available for future region definitions
Example: 3561:11xxx customer, North America
3561:24xxx peer, Australia
"CCC" signifies country code defined by ISO 3166 codes for countries. Note: Peers use a country code of "000".
