Hi;
1) Regarding to RFC 1997 and 1998, the RFC describe the usage of AA:NN
format.
2) The communitiy is a set of four octet and represent as hex.
3) The first 2 octetc are the autononus systeerm and the last 2 octets
are an administratively definied identifier.
4) The default by cisco is NN:AA foramt and decimal.
5) If you want to use new foramt, enable it in global configuration mode.
By typing the following command
ip bgp-community new-format.
>From you example:
I guess it is default cisco format
6461 is community identifier.
701 is AS no.
Additive is adds the community to the already existing communities
