Hello I think U can refer to RFC1771 which describes in detail about Border Gateway protocol. U can also refer RFC1772 which explains about the application of BGP in the internet community. Also you can refer the following documents which describes about various path attributes associated with the BGP packet, route reflection functionalities etc "BGP Route Reflection An alternative to full mesh IBGP," RFC1966, June 1996. "BGP Communities Attribute," RFC1997, August 1996. "An Application of the BGP Community Attribute in Multi-home Routing," IETF RFC1998, August 1996. "BGP Route Flap Damping," IETF draft, draft-ietf-idr-route-damp-01.ps, Jan. 1998. "Multiprotocol Extensions for BGP-4,", RFC 2283 September 1997. "BGP Communities Attribute," RFC1997, August 1996. "Autonomous System Confederations for BGP," RFC1965, June 1996. "Destination Preference Attribute for BGP," IETF draft, draft-ietf-idr-dpa-03.txt, November 1995. "Capabilities Negotiation with BGP-4", IETF draft, draft-ietf-idr-bgp-cap-neg-00.txt, August 1997. "The MD5 Message Digest Algorithm," IETF RFC1321, April 1992. "BGP-4 MD5 Authentication," IETF draft, draft-przygienda-bgp-md5-00.txt, November 1997. "BGP-4 Capabilities Negotiation for BGP Multiprotocol Extensions," IETF draft, draft-marques-bgp4-cap-mp-00.txt, Nov. 1997. I hope this will give u the informations that u are seeking.
