The differences between static BGP and dynamic BGP are as follows:

Static BGP |

---|---|---|
Definition |
Static routes are manually configured and must be manually reconfigured anytime when the network topology or link status changes. |
Dynamic BGP provides automatic failover and chooses the best path based on the real-time network conditions and preset policies. |
Assurance |
When changes occur on a network that uses static BGP, the manual configuration takes some time and high availability cannot be guaranteed.
NOTE:
If you select static BGP, your application system must have disaster recovery setups in place. |
When a fault occurs on a carrier's link, dynamic BGP will quickly select another optimal path to take over services, ensuring service availability. |
