NAME
sbgp - simple BGP speaker/listner
SYNOPSIS
sbgp [-i data_in_file] [-o data_out_file] [-l log_file] [my AS] [peer_IP peer_AS]...
DESCRIPTION
The `sbgp' program is a simple BGP protol speaker and
listner. The program can be used to receive and/or inject
BPG routing information into one or more BGP peering see
sions. The program does NOT maintain routing information
or apply policy to incomming or outgoing routes.
(my AS) specifies the local AS number to be used in BGP
peering sessions. If a local AS number is not specified,
sbgp uses a random AS number greater than 6000. Multiple
BGP peers may be configured by listing multiple peer_IP
peer_AS on the command line.

Backbone. This feature will only exist in ALPHA
