- BGPSessionThe physical-transport objects are imported by theGlobal Managerjust in caseIP Availability Manageris not available.Chapter 3, “MPLS, VPN, and BGP Objects and their Failures,” provides descriptions of the MPLS, VPN, and BGP objects. The provides a description of the physical-transport objects.TheGlobal Managercombines this topology with the underlying physical-transport topology that is imported fromIP Availability Manager.
