I've never seen BGP covered in networking courses. Other than advanced Cisco courses.
OSPF and RIP and IGRP - common interior protocols, yes; but not BGP. You must attend a better grade of schooling than I did. :) Regards, Michael B.

Any networking course should cover BGP. When I did my networking subjects, we have to cover OSPF, RIP, BGP etc. Cheers Ken From: Michael B.

If you've never worked for an ISP, or acquired a CCNP (or higher), or worked for a telecommunications company - it's unlikely that you would've run into BGP or ASNs. We all have our areas of expertise. Don't ask me to set up KMS, for example (to reference another ongoing thread on this mailing list). I know zero about it. Regards, Michael B.

Ah. I have heard that term I just didn't connect it. Why is it the more I learn the more ignorant I feel? Some days I actually think I do know a lot and then something like this pops up and I'm back to "eh, I'm just a n00b..."
