31.5.1.2. Network
Networks may be specified in order to add BGP routers connected to the specified subnets. Note that a
network specification need not be a given valid entry in the routing table. Since BGP is a border gateway
protocol, one would more typically enter a more general network specification here. For example, if a
routed network inside the AS comprised many different Class C subnets (/24) of the 192.168.0.0/16
range, it would be more efficient to advertise the one Class B network specification, 192.168.0.0/16,
to one’s BGP neighbors.
If BGP Neighbors are specified but no Networks are specified, then the router will receive
BGP routing information from its neighbors but will not advertise any routes to them.
