Hello group, Interior Gateway Protocols (IGP) are used to exchange routing information with routers in the same autonomous system. Examples are OSPF, IGRP, EIGRP, RIP (right ?).
Exterior Gateway Protocols (EGP) are used to communicate between ASes. Example will be BGP (right ?). The reason I am confused is because of iBGP, eBGP and also external EIGRP. Now I am quoting from Sybex "The internal Border Gateway Protocols used by routers that all belong to the same AS. So where does iBGP fits in. Is it an IGP or EGP? Similarly what is external EIGRP? Even an important question will be; in real life where would one like to use iBGP Could some body point me to an online resource for BGP that is easy to follow. I am having hard time understanding chapters 8 and 9 in Sybex Routing Study Guide.
