Can someone point me in the direction of some good white papers where I could pick up some knowledge on BGP specifically in regards to transit routing.
I am working with 3 local ISPs here all connected to different backbones. We are all going to be peering at one central office with T-1 lines running between each location.
Our intention is to allow each others traffic to flow through whoever is the closest route. However I have only recently gotten into BGP.
Any help is appreciated.
