No change - if you today advertise prefix you will still advertise it with 
the same mask. The only change is that geocommunity will be added.

If you today advertise more specific prefix from different country you 
will add different geocommunity to show to the world that origin country 
for the whole less specific from LIR database is not applicable to it.
