BGP

BGP is a path vector routing protocol. He care about how many AS path numbers to pass not routers that why path vector protocol. BGP uses TCP port 179. We need to advertise exact network at BGP if not we don't see any network. We shouldn't forget about TTL of BGP. eBGP TTL is 1 and iBGP TTL is 255.

BGP have 6 states:
1. Idle
    Process shutdown or waiting for next retry.

2. Connect
    Waiting for TCP connection to complete.

3. Active
    TCP conection ready, No BGP messages sent.

4. Opensent.
    Open message send.

5. Openconfirm
    Receive open message from neighbor.

6. Established
    Finish peering and start routing.

eBGP and iBGP is difference only two word, between and within.

eBGP AD 20.
iBGP AD 200.

Difference AS but want to advertise as a same AS use confederation.

OSPF

OSPF Area 0 is a backbone area. Other Area must connect to Area 0. Virtual link use for connect to Area 0 pass from other area. When middle area is stub area we can use GRE tunnel.

OSPF Stub

The following restrictions apply to stub areas:     You cannot create a virtual link through a stub area.   A stub area cannot contain an AS boundary router.   You cannot configure the backbone as a stub area.   You cannot configure an area as both a stub area and an not-so-stubby area (NSSA).
