Depending on how many years since you last looked at BGP, you may be shocked at how many address families BGP now carries… it’s very Multi-Protocol now. MP-BGP I’ll always remember how informative the Basam Halabi book was. Also the Ivan Peplnjak MPLS VPN book. Both have a couple editions. Those are oldies but goodies. More recently is MPLS in the SDN era. But it seems the SR/SPRING will be the most recent topics to study, I think that’s were BGP-LU comes in. I need to get a book and read too Aaron

It has been a couple of decades since I've done any BGP in anger, but it looks like I will be jumping into the deep end again, soon, and I desperately need to get up to speed again.
There seem to be a lot of good guides out there from Cisco, Juniper, and the like, but naturally they are very product oriented. What I'm looking for is more like the Stevens networking bibles (i.e. "BGP Illustrated Vol I and II"). Something that covers more than just the raw protocols, and includes things like RPKI. (The world sure has changed since the last time I was doing this!)
Any/all suggestions welcome.
Thanks!
