This is taken out of RFC1771 and current BGP draft 17.
"BGP Identifier:
This 4-octet unsigned integer indicates the BGP Identifier of
the sender. A given BGP speaker sets the value of its BGP
Identifier to an IP address assigned to that BGP speaker. "
Most IP addresses I am familiar with are routable. If not, the description
should not read "IP address", but only "4-octet unsigned integer".
