Thread: What Is Border Gateway Protocol (BGP)?
Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) refers to a gateway protocol that enables the internet to
exchange routing information between autonomous systems (AS). As networks interact with
each other, they need a way to communicate. This is accomplished through peering. BGP
makes peering possible. Without it, networks would not be able to send and receive
information with each other.
When you have a network router that connects to other networks, it does not know which
network is the best one to send its data to. BGP takes into consideration all the different
peering options a router has and chooses the one closest to where the router is. Each potential
peer communicates the routing information it has and that gets stored within a routing
information base (RIB). BGP can access this information and use it to choose the best peering
option.
The next-hop paradigm dictates that a packet of data goes to the next or most optimal choice
among all the potential routers it can be sent to. Because BGP supports next-hop, connections
can be optimized for faster network performance, instead of having to navigate far, disparate
routing BGP points, wasting valuable time.
Also, because of this support, administrators do not have to configure BGP for next-hop
connections.
What are the functions of Border Gateway Protocol (BGP)?
The functions of BGP include the sending of negative or positive reachability information and
verification that the peers and the network connection between them are functioning correctly.

¿Qué es BGP?
Protocolo de puerta de enlace fronteriza (BGP) se refiere a un protocolo de puerta de enlace
que permite que Internet intercambie información de enrutamiento entre sistemas autónomos
(AS). A medida que las redes interactúan entre sí, necesitan una forma de comunicarse. Esto se
logra a través de la interconexión. BGP hace posible el emparejamiento. Sin él, las redes no
podrían enviar y recibir información entre sí.
BGP interno se refiere a un mecanismo que brinda información sobre los enrutadores internos
en un sistema. Esto se hace usando una topología de malla, lo que implica que las rutas se
reciban de los vecinos BGP internos sin que se anuncien a otros vecinos BGP internos. De esta
forma, un sistema BGP interno evita bucles. Los bucles de enrutamiento son más comunes en
los sistemas BGP externos porque no utilizan una topología de malla similar.
