Abstract
A computer system may include logic configured to generate a topology model of an autonomous system; detect a route advertisement, relating to an external autonomous system, from a Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) router; select a client BGP router; determine a next hop destination to the external autonomous system for the selected second BGP router, based on the detected route advertisement and based on the generated topology model; and provide the determined next hop destination to the selected client BGP router.
