Large communities have fixed format. There is no TLV there. Which proposal was more of fixed format then large comms ??? And no proposal suggested only fixed rules. Wide Communities supported TLV and local rules exactly as you would do with current large comms. Also they proposed in parallel to full operator's flexibility set of well known values as documented here: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-idr-registered-wide-bgp-communities-02 Thx, R.
