  2. Border Gateway Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Border_Gateway_Protocol

    Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is a standardized exterior gateway protocol designed to exchange routing and reachability information among autonomous systems (AS) on the Internet. [2] BGP is classified as a path-vector routing protocol , [ 3 ] and it makes routing decisions based on paths, network policies, or rule-sets configured by a network ...

  3. Path-vector routing protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Path-vector_routing_protocol

    Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is an example of a path vector protocol. In BGP, the autonomous system boundary routers (ASBR) send path-vector messages to advertise the reachability of networks. Each router that receives a path vector message must verify the advertised path according to its policy.

  4. OpenBGPD - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenBGPD

    OpenBGPD, also known as OpenBSD Border Gateway Protocol Daemon, is a server software program that allows general purpose computers to be used as routers. It is a Unix system daemon that provides a free, open-source implementation of the Border Gateway Protocol version 4. This allows a machine to exchange routes with other systems that speak BGP.

  5. Anycast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anycast

    Anycast is a network addressing and routing methodology in which a single IP address is shared by devices (generally servers) in multiple locations. Routers direct packets addressed to this destination to the location nearest the sender, using their normal decision-making algorithms, typically the lowest number of BGP network hops.

  6. Multiprotocol BGP - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiprotocol_BGP

    Multiprotocol Extensions for BGP (MBGP or MP-BGP), sometimes referred to as Multiprotocol BGP or Multicast BGP and defined in IETF RFC 4760, [1] is an extension to Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) that allows different types of addresses (known as address families) to be distributed in parallel.

  7. Border Gateway Multicast Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Border_Gateway_Multicast...

    The Border Gateway Multicast Protocol (BGMP) was an IETF project which attempted to design a true inter-domain multicast routing protocol. [1] BGMP was planned to be able to scale in order to operate in the global Internet.

  8. Distance-vector routing protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance-vector_routing...

    The distance-vector protocol designed for use in wide area networks (WANs) is the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). BGP is an exterior gateway protocol and therefore implemented on border and exterior routers on the Internet. It exchanges information between routers through a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) session. Routers with BGP ...

  9. BGP hijacking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BGP_hijacking

    These prefixes will be originated, or owned, by an autonomous system (AS), and the routing tables between ASes are maintained using the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). A group of networks that operates under a single external routing policy is known as an autonomous system. For example, Sprint, Verizon, and AT&T each are an AS. Each AS has its ...
