Yeah, we're using it for an anycasted node but like, I'm confused on certain parts like, just a really basic question. When doing things like

I'm confused on when doing this, would I need to state like
First go to AS13335 then go to TATA then go to my server or would it just automatically do that or would my provider do that? I'm confused on that. how would I state multiple peers.....?
AS13335 is Cloudflare. How does TATA relate? You have a deicated server connected to TATA and Cloudflare? I'm skeptical.
You really ought to do some more reading, learning, and practicing before running public BGP.
I would recommend reading this book cover-to-cover: http://www.bgpexpert.com/'BGP'-by-Iljitsch-van-Beijnum/ It's only ~250 small pages. To practice and experiment, emulate some example configurations with GNS3 and Dynamips, or some Linux VMs with Quagga or BIRD.

An Anycasting node. For example, as part of a reliable DNS service. A /24 is usually the smallest prefix length that is portably accepted.
Also, applications where connections need to appear to be coming from
many
source IPs.

Howdy,
Unless you have (1) a real router available, not a just a server and (2) an expert available to help you with your first BGP configuration I strongly recommend you simply ask your service provider to announce the /24 to the Internet on your behalf.
Server-based BGP software like Quagga for Linux is reasonably good but it should absolutely not be involved in your _first_ attempt to connect with the Internet's default-free zone. Simple mistakes with eBGP can cause tremendous damage to other folks on the Internet. Trial and error is simply not OK. If it isn't worth it to you to buy a BGP-capable router then you also aren't prepared to make the investment in learning it takes to use BGP without causing harm.
