BGP Monitoring Protocol (BMP) allows a monitoring station to connect to a router and collect all of the BGP announcements received from the router’s BGP peers.

To understand why BGP-LU tunnels are required to be redistributed into LDP and vice versa, let’s consider the following basic topology for InterAS Option C. It uses IS-IS as IGP where indicated along with LDP:

In EVPN deployment with VXLAN underlay when an EVPN type 5 prefix is imported into an IP VRF, the IGP cost of the underlay

In an MLAG setup, routing on a switch (MLAG peer) is possible using its own bridge/system MAC, VARP MAC or VRRP MAC.
