One perplexing problem with large-scale BGP deployments, particularly when BGP speakers are connected over multiple-hop networks within the autonomous system, is how to handle convergence time differentials between the interior gateway protocols. Figure 7.11 illustrates.

To understand how a differential in the convergence time between an interior gateway protocol and BGP can cause traffic to be dropped, let's work through a network event and the convergence that occurs afterward. Let's begin with router ...
