Before networks became extensive, there was no such thing as interior and exterior gateway protocols. A network simply just ran on a generic routing protocol. This eventually ran into problems so Routing Information Protocol (RIP) was developed and ran as the single routing protocol for many years [1]. As the internet grew, however, this single routing protocol could no longer handle all the traffic. Because of this, over time numerous other routing protocols were developed to meet the needs of routing. One of the numerous gateway protocols that were developed was Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), which is classified as an exterior gateway protocol (EGP).
BGP was developed in January 1989 at the 12th Internet Engineering Task Force Meeting in Austin, Texas, by two men, Yakov Rekhter and Kirk Lougheed [1]. Interestingly enough, the initial design of BGP was detailed on a napkin, which shortly after was transfer to paper and quickly implemented. From this initial design on a napkin came the basics of the gateway protocol, BGP, which will be discussed in the remaining of this paper.
OVERVIEW:
BASICS:
BGP is the biggest existing routing protocol as it has to find all the possible routes and carry information around the world. Because it is so big, however, it is also the slowest routing protocol. Mainly, BGP is used to connect local networks with external networks to get access to the internet or other organizations [2]. Additionally, BGP communication systems are to exchange reachability information on a network with other BGP systems [3]. This information includes a list of autonomous systems (AS), in which a table can be constructed showing possible routing loops. Autonomous systems are discussed in detail later.

...icated list of metrics, which is part of the reason why BGP is so complex. From these metrics, BGP has to select a single path that it feels is the best to get from a host to a network. This selection algorithm analyzes the each paths metrics to determine which route to install in the forwarding routing table [2]. Standard policy configurations of BGP can also influence BGP’s forwarding path [2]. The information that is trying to be accessed across the internet is then sent using forwarding table that was made by BGP. This also requires the best path to be sent to external BGP neighbors. Typically, BGP speakers only advertise routes to peers that it uses itself [3].
BGP assigns the first path that is valid as the current best path, and then compares it with the next path in the list until it finds the best path in the list of valid paths. The following figure shows
Routing scheme means to find a path from once place to another on which packets can travel. In most of the cases, we need multiple routers in order to route the packet to the destination. Routing contains three elements:
Your Citizenship please? At a point in time, people encounter this question when you are about to cross the border into a different country, whether it is by car, train or plane. It questions one’s identity as to who they are. Most people answer with the current country they live in but does one ever answer with the country that they were from? “Borders” by Thomas King, is an intriguing story about a mother that has pride in her culture and values where she comes from. Along with her two kids, she resides in a native community. The mother has to declare her citizenship at the border, where she persistently presents herself as “Blackfoot.” The story, “Borders”, illustrates how difficult it is for Aboriginals to maintain their cultural identities in contemporary times. The mother and the daughter have several cultural differences as the mother, who displays extremely strong values and feelings towards her culture while her daughter, Laetitia wants to explore outside of her reserve. There is an imaginary line that King refers to is an additional obstacle that impedes on their culture. They have to respect the border but still maintain their culture. The obstacle that the imaginary line creates a political alliance which adds to their cultural values. Lastly, the title “Borders” itself, is very symbolic and play a significant role in the theme. The title intrigues the reader and identifies an idea that is central to the theme of the story.
During the 1960’s America was experiencing many historical changes, both pleasant and tragic events, such as Sexual Revolution, Vietnam War, Civil Rights Act and the rise of NASA. These movements have strongly impacted the way Americans’ live today.
The 1950s in America was a time that brought about simplicity and perfection amongst the American society. The “all-American Dream” with the flawless family, which was emphasized by the constraints, and expectations that were demanded by the American Republican era of Eisenhower, would pave way for manifesting changes of the 1960s. Through the emphasis of media and societal expectations and political and wartime upheaval, Americans would fit the cookie cutter mold that would breed the fighters and lovers of the 1960s.
As World War Two came to a close, a new American culture was developing all across the United States. Families were moving away from crowded cities into spacious suburban towns to help create a better life for them during and after the baby boom of the post-war era. Teenagers were starting to become independent by listing to their own music and not wearing the same style of clothing as their parents. Aside from the progress of society that was made during this time period, many people still did not discuss controversial issues such as divorce and sexual relations between young people. While many historians regard the 1950s as a time of true conservatism at its finest, it could really be considered a time of true progression in the American way of life.
Border Patrol The U.S. Border Patrol to me is very important to the United States of America and to me as well. Without the Border Patrol, America would be a goat standing in the middle of a wolf cage. The Border Patrol and their agents border the boundaries of America so we can be safe in our homes. People don’t realize how important any kind of law enforcement is, until the day that they need assistance comes. I don’t take our men and women who protect us Americans.
The 1950's were a time of great change in the United States. Firstly, there was the television. Television was a major product of influence during the 1950's. It affected the way people lived and how they behaved. The programs played on television affected the way people and families behaved, either positively or negatively.
The 1950s was a period of both consensus and discontent, which impacted the political, social, and cultural history of the decade. There were numerous things that the people agreed and disagreed on, like anticommunism and McCarthyism, the Korean and Vietnam wars, and the Civil Rights Movement. The country seemed divided about almost every event that occurred during this time period because the air was filled with so much tension from the Cold War.
As shown in my essay, those who grew up during the 1950s experienced one of the most dominant decades in American history. This is because of the many different types of media that were available to them. The people of the 1950s saw the development of rock and roll music, which helped them escape the seriousness of reality and let loose. Rock and roll music succeeded in appealing to teenagers because of its exciting back beat, its urgent call to dance, and the action of its lyrics. The people of the 1950s also saw the rise of new technology advancements. The introduction of the television was one of the most popular products during this period of time. The aspect of early television that can never be recaptured is the combined sense of astonishment
The beat-up Arab minivan slowed tentatively under the scrutinizing gaze of the Israeli soldier on duty. The routine was simple. About halfway between Damascus Gate in East Jerusalem and Ramallah, the West Bank commercial center, the driver, blaring Arabic music on his radio, maneuvered around the dusty slabs of concrete that composed the Beit Haninah Checkpoint. He waited for a once-over by the Hebrew-speaking 18-year-old and permission to continue. Checkpoints-usually just small tin huts with a prominent white and blue Israeli flag-have become an integral and accepted part of Palestinian existence under Israeli occupation. But for me, a silent passenger in the minivan, each time we entered the no man's land between Israeli territory and the West Bank, my hea...
How complicated can it be to secure the borderland? Nearly 2,000 miles and five states form the Southern border of the United States. Although the nation puts a lot of effort and resources on trying to secure the border, the Southern border remains as one of the most conflictive, active and violent borders in the world. The U.S.-Mexican border is very problematic: Thousands of people try to cross it everyday, violence is generated by the Mexican cartels, and there is an increase on human trafficking. The Border Patrol and the U.S. government face many great challenges, as the cartels become more powerful and corruption increases.
Modern internet technology is introduced into new vehicles as a safety feature. One recent idea is having connectivity between vehicles. Ankeeta Patel of Parul Institute of Engineering and Technology presents the
Perhaps the most redundant, fault-tolerant of all network topologies is the mesh LAN. Each node is connected to every other node for a true point-to-point connection between every device on the network.
