Learning BGP Module 1 Lesson 1: Why BGP? – Video

The Video Delivery

Russ White kicks off a ten-video series on the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). The series is divided into two modules, with short lessons within each module.

This first video covers a brief history of BGP and then gets into the purpose of BPG, reachability vs. a route, Autonomous System (AS) rules, problems that BGP solves, and IBGP vs. EBGP.

Russ White is a network architect, author, and instructor.
