  • Abstract
    BGP allows routers to use general preference policies for route selection. This paper studies the impact of these policies on convergence time. We first describe a real-time model of BGP. We then state and prove a general theorem providing an upper bound on convergence time. Finally, we show how to the use the theorem to prove convergence and estimate convergence time in three case studies.
