Routers R5, R2 and R6 are all IBGP peers with R2 configured as the Route
Reflector. R5 has an EBGP peering to R4 and R6 has an EBGP peering to R9

In this task R4 in AS4 is advertising the following loopbacks into BGP over to
R5 in AS 256 (EBGP)
Network Next Hop Metric LocPrf Weight Path
*> 204.40.4.4/32 0.0.0.0 0 32768 i
*> 204.41.4.4/32 0.0.0.0 0 32768 i

*> 204.43.4.4/32 0.0.0.0 0 32768 i
The task says to configure R5 so that R2 and R6 only see the loopbacks with
even numbers in the second octet. I configured everything up and set the
community to no-export for the even numbered routes (204.40 && 204.32) and they
are being sent over to R2 just as we would expect them to. If I look at the
routes I see they are tagged with "no-export" on R2 and R6, however they are
still showing up in R9's BGP table, but how come?
Here are some of the relevant config
R5(config)#do sh run | s bgp

Over on R6 we can see the routes are tagged with "no-community"
