  • Within the organisation, the BGP routers need to talk to each other to exchange their BGP routing tables, so they can decide which of them has the best link to any particular external network; and usually you use a protocol such as Open Shortest Path First aka OSPF which is likely to be supported by your firewalls between your internal routers, firewalls, and the BGP routers, in order for them to exchange information about their connectivity, so your internal network can likewise detect and adjust for internal cable, router, and switch failures.

  • And the gadgets can communicate with each other to establish the global connectivity, so that traffic that needs to be routed between gadgets can be sent along the correct path; rather than having separate failover at the switch (STP) and router/firewall (OSPF) layer, we can do it all in one, simplifying matters.
