Here you can find the proposed allocation method: http://laru.lu/on-the-air/hamnet-44net.html http://laru.lu/on-the-air/hamnet-44net.html
It uses 32 bit ASNs, which are represented as a single number, the old 16bit:16bit scheme being obsolete, but backwards compatible.
I know about AS numbers but I am asking about community values, not AS numbers.

Sorry, my fault.
Since these are arbitrary numbers, I use the first decimal part of the 32bit address as the high word (so that the 42 + country is conserved). Just an idea, and it works... e.g. 42226:0
This approach could be used systematically and gives unique numbers.

RFC4360 defines extended communities, but I don't know much more about them.
So far not I haven't seen much usage of communities within AMPR BGP networks.
Which usages would you like to coordinate?
