Border Router Discovery Protocol (BRDP)
The Border Router Discovery Protocol (BRDP) is defined for Border Router discovery.
BRDP is to be used for address generation mechanisms, source address selection mechanisms and routing in multi-homed edge networks.

BRDP Based Address Autoconfiguration
Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET) may be attached to a fixed infrastructure network, like the Internet. BRDP Based Address Autoconfiguration is a mechanism for Border Router discovery and utilization in such a subordinate, possibly multi-homed, MANET. It provides facilities for choosing preferred Border Router(s) and configuring IP address(es) needed for communication between MANET nodes and nodes on the Internet via the selected Border Router. Autonomous MANETs do not have Border Routers; an self-sufficient Address Autoconfiguration is defined as well.

BRDP Based Routing
BRDP Based Routing is a mechanism for routing in multi-homed edge networks. The default gateway routing mechanism is replaced with routing to Border Routers that correspond with the source address of the packets.
