   - Reduced throughput — TCP's congestion control reacts too late because loss signals are delayed.
   - Jitter — unpredictable queue depths cause variable RTTs.
+==== ROUTING ====
+There are three main designs:
+  - iBGP underlay and eBGP overlay
+    - Spines and Super-spines are in iBGP domain
+    - Each leaf has its unique ASN assigned
+    - Leaves establish multi-hop eBGP with each other
+  - eBGP underlay and iBGP overlay (Juniper way)
+    - All leaves share the same ASN
+    - Spines and super-spines are connected using eBGP
+    - Leaves are connected using iBGP
+  - eBGP for both
+BGP convergence challenges:
+  - Path hunting
+  - Over-flooding
+Solutions:
+  - Valley-free routing - make sure leaves are non-transit routers. One of the solutions is to apply outbound AS-path filter allowing only ''^$''
+BGP Tuning options:
+  - MRAI (Min route advertisement interval)
