2. What Is BGP? Border Gateway Protocol BGP-4
The de-facto interdomain routing protocol
BGP enables policy in routing:
Which information gets advertised and how
BGP is a Distance Vector like protocol
Within an AS, Internal Gateway Protocol (IGP or I-BGP) Vectoring Distributed Routing protocol
Each Router knows little about the network topology
Only best next-hops are chosen by each router for each destination network
Best end2end paths result from composition of all next-hop choices
Does not require any notion of distance
Does not require uniform policies at all routers

3. How A BGP graph Looks Like Each AS has designated BGP routers BGP routers of an AS communicate internally with another protocol (IGP)
