Is there any registry or documented method for

I have not seen a AMPR specific communities suggestion list.
I now use one value to tell the other routers that a
route is not over radio
(but over internet tunnel, in this case) so inside the network it can be used
as a backup route when the radio route fails.
Might I suggest setting higher link costs in your IGP on the wireless
link interfaces as a easier way to achieve trying to influence a path? Or even
better yet, use MPLS-TE and set explicit path names. You could have a more
preferred tunnel path and then a backup path as well... and more.
