BGP set community

[spellluck]

So, I need to set a community for a BGP connection... But getting an interesting response from the router.

Here it the command I enter

#set community 209:70

And here is what it looks like in the configuration.

set community 13697094

Anyone else have this issue?

Does your configuration contain ip bgp-community new-format?
