BGP ORIGIN attribute manipulation and its impact on the Internet
- Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is the de facto routing protocol of the Internet.
- It offers built-in mechanisms to allow entities, represented by Autonomous Systems (ASes), to express how they want to send and receive traffic on the Internet.
- One such mechanism is path attributes, which carry essential routing information and metadata for their associated route.
