The Exterior Gateway Protocol (EGP) was a routing protocol used to connect different autonomous systems on the Internet from the mid-1980s until the mid-1990s, when it was replaced by Border Gateway Protocol (BGP).
EGP was developed by Bolt, Beranek and Newman in the early 1980s. It was first described in RFC 827 [1] and formally specified in RFC 904. [2]
RFC 1772 outlined a migration path from EGP to BGP. [3]
