+BGP demo
+---------------------------------------------------
+
+Provides examples of BGP config using Honeycomb
+two VPP nodes (docker containers).
+
+Configuration was tested using VPP 18.01 and hc2vpp 1.18.01.
+
+1) Create & start containers (requires hc2vpp image)
+sudo ./build_topology.sh
+
+3) Run vpp and honeycomb with preconfigured veth interfaces
+
+Either manually connect
+docker exec -it vpp1 bash
+docker exec -it vpp2 bash
+
+and then run vpp and honeycomb on vpp1 and vpp2 respectively:
+/hc2vpp/mpls_demo/init/vpp.sh 1
+/hc2vpp/mpls_demo/init/vpp.sh 2
+
+or run everything via script (uses xfce4-terminal):
+./run_terminals.sh
+
+After vpp and honeycomb stars,
+you should be able to ping vpp2 from vpp1.
+
+Either using vppctl:
+vppctl ping 10.12.1.2
+
+or directly (we are using tuntap):
+ping 10.12.1.2
+
+4) Use postman_collection.json for BGP configuration examples
+
+First configure loop0 interface on vpp2.
+
+Then configure eBGP peers on vpp1 and vpp2
+and program route to loop0 using application peer from vpp2.
+
+Now loop0 is reachable from vpp1:
+vppctl ping 10.100.1.1
