Ethernet switches used for Azure Local SDN compute traffic must support Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). BGP is a standard routing protocol used to exchange routing and reachability information between two or more networks. Routes are automatically added to the route table of all subnets with BGP propagation enabled. This is required to enable tenant workloads with SDN and dynamic peering.
