Title : A Border Gateway Protocol 4 (BGP-4)

The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is an inter-Autonomous System rout-
ing protocol.
The primary function of a BGP speaking system is to exchange network
reachability information with other BGP systems. This network reacha-
bility information includes information on the list of Autonomous
Systems (ASs) that reachability information traverses. This informa-
tion is sufficient to construct a graph of AS connectivity from which
routing loops may be pruned and some policy decisions at the AS level
may be enforced.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-idr-bgp4-18.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
