EGP Concepts and Terminology
EGP-2 is an exterior gateway protocol used to exchange network reachability
information between routers in different autonomous systems. In each, AS routers
share routing information using one or more interior gateway protocols -- for
example, RIP or OSPF. The routers that serve as endpoints of a connection
between two ASs run an exterior gateway protocol, such as EGP-2 (see
Figure 7-1).
