Original: RFC 1267 defining the Border Gateway Protocol or BGP version 3 was published in October 1991 https:// cromwell-intl.com/

A networking enthusiast has highlighted that RFC 1267, the document defining Border Gateway Protocol version 3, was published in October 1991. BGP remains the routing protocol that holds the internet together, and the post prompted discussion of how a protocol designed more than three decades ago still underpins global IP networking, alongside links to resources on Linux and open-source networking.

Why now: Tech communities often revisit foundational internet protocols to discuss their longevity and current security or reliability concerns
