一些网络运营商构建和运营支持超过十万台服务器的数据中心。在本文档中，这样的数据中心被称为“大规模”，以将它们与较小的基础设施区分开来。这种规模的环境有一套独特的网络要求，重点是操作简单性和网络稳定性。本文档总结了使用BGP作为唯一路由协议设计和运营大型数据中心的运营经验。其目的是报告一个经过验证的稳定的路由设计，可供业内其他人利用。
Some network operators build and operate data centers that support over one hundred thousand servers. In this document, such data centers are referred to as "large-scale" to differentiate them from smaller infrastructures. Environments of this scale have a unique set of network requirements with an emphasis on operational simplicity and network stability. This document summarizes operational experience in designing and operating large-scale data centers using BGP as the only routing protocol. The intent is to report on a proven and stable routing design that could be leveraged by others in the industry.
