bootstrap router (BSR)

A dynamically elected Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) router that collects information about potential Rendezvous Point routers and distributes the information to all PIM routers in the domain.

Border Gateway Protocol (BGP)

An exterior gateway protocol that routers use in different autonomous systems (AS) to exchange routing information.

boundary port

A bridge port that attaches a Multiple Spanning

Tree (MST) bridge to a LAN in another region.

Breaker Interface Panel (BIP)

A central rack location that connects redundant input DC-power feeds and routes to one or two 8010co chassis. The BIP provides an alarm module and display panel that monitors system components, generates alarms, and controls LED status indicators.

Bridge Protocol Data Unit (BPDU)

A data frame used to exchange information among the bridges in local or wide area networks for network topology maintenance.

burst tolerance (BT)

For ATM traffic, the maximum burst size (MBS) minus 1 multiplied by the difference between the peak cell rate (PCR) and sustained cell rate (SCR) intervals.
