Which two statements about a BGP peer are true?

The statement regarding the BGP state being "Established" for a peer is true. In Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), a peer becomes fully operational and able to exchange routes once it reaches the Established state. This state indicates that the BGP session has been successfully set up, and both peers have completed the handshake process, which includes exchanging capabilities. As a result, any peer can correctly be in the Established state if the connection is properly functioning.

In the context of BGP, the other statements have specific implications that clarify why they are not always true. For instance, while a BGP peer generally maintains a single connection for the purpose of exchanging routing information, it's important to understand that BGP can support multipeer configurations, but each peer will only have one active session for a particular connection. Additionally, peers can indeed share multiple routes due to the nature of BGP's route advertising capabilities. Lastly, while using unique Autonomous System (AS) numbers for each peer is important when establishing BGP peering relationships, it is not always the case that every peer must have a different AS number, especially in the context of tapping into the same AS for internal BGP (iBGP) communications.

Therefore, the understanding of the Established
