[isp-bgp] Re: configure customer prefixes

XZ> [W]e want to configure a BGP router so that it only announces

XZ> AS numbers as a customer ASN or a peer ASN

Scrub all BGP communities at route ingress points, save for the
ones you want people to send you.  Set communities based on if
the network is customer/peer.  At egress points, you may block
peer/upstream routes from being sent.

Note that this does not prevent someone from sending traffic to
your peers/upstreams if the routes are in the table.  For this,
people usually put peers on separate routers (or use VRFs).  ACLs
are not really suitable for this task.
