7.36 BGP Communities

Just curious...

This lab instructs us to configure inbound route-maps on both R3 and R5 to match the community value of 200:200 and manipulate all of the prefixes that were originated in AS60 with a local-preference of 200.

My question is, why does the solution have us configure R5? That seems kinda redundant because R1 is sending the community-value to R3 and once R3 receives the community value, it's going to change the local-prefernce for all prefixes originated in AS60 to 200 and share it with all devices in AS200.

I did this task as directed by the provided solution and also without configuring anything on R5 and received the same results.

Thanks.
