Border Gateway Protocol
Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is an advanced distance-vector routing protocol. Among other features, BGP has state awareness, security, and the scalability to handle hundreds upon thousands of routes. Consequently, BGP has become the defacto standard for routing table compilations on the Internet.
As this page will only scratch the surface of BGP's use, I suggest interested parties should read Sam Halabi's book, "Internet Routing Architectures," by Cisco Press.

**Please note: When selecting an Autonomous System number, it is important to choose from among the reserved AS numbers as defined by RFC1930. ( AS64512 - AS65535 ) Should Seattle Wireless ever use BGP to communicate with networks attached to the Internet, the existance of public non-registered AS numbers would cause routing errors.
