Understanding Border Gateway Protocol

The Border Gateway Protocol determines routing loops using distance vector routing and communicates between routers on the same physical network. It uses metrics like autonomous system count and link type, and messages like Open, Notification, and Keepalive. Administrative distance represents the trustworthiness of routing updates, with directly connected being most trusted and unknown being least.

BORDER GATEWAY PROTOCOL

• Determines routing loops


• Distance vector protocol
• No core
• For 2 BGP routers to communicate they must be on the same physical
network

• The metric used is


Autonomous system count
Type of link

• Initially full routing table made available to all routers.


Then updates are sent out incrementally

• BGP uses the following messages types
• Open

• Notification

• Keep alive

BGP A.S

ADMINISTRATIVE DISTANCE
• Used to represent the trust worthiness of the routing update source
• Higher the value, the less trusted the source.
