The set protocols bgp neighbor send-community command enables community and/or extended community exchange with the specified neighbor. When this command is configured for the peer-group, then all the neighbors that are part of peer-group will send the community values to the peers.
The delete protocols bgp neighbor send-community command will not allow the neighbor to send community values to the specific neighbors that are part of peer-group.
