Like the Internet protocol stack that inspired it, the Interledger protocol suite is divided into layers of protocols with different responsibilities. Lower-level protocols provide basic functionality that higher-level protocols depend on to provide more complex functionality. | |||

> **Aside:** Not pictured in the diagram are configuration protocols including [IL-RFC-31: Interledger Dynamic Configuration Protocol](../0031-dynamic-configuration-protocol/0031-dynamic-configuration-protocol.md) and **Route Broadcasting Protocol**. These protocols are built on top of the Interledger Protocol layer and support it, but are not considered to be transport or application-layer protocols. | |||

made it generic and pointed out that it wasn't spec'ed out yet
- Nodes are connected to each other and the relationship between two nodes is either: | ||
- `parent` and `child` (one node is the `parent` of another node that is relatively its `child`), or, | ||
- `peer` and `peer` (two nodes are peered with one another). | ||

## Overview | ||
Interledger is a protocol suite that consists of several protocols including the [Bilateral Transfer Protocol](../0023-bilateral-transfer-protocol/0023-bilateral-transfer-protocol.md), the Route Broadcasting Protocol and others necessary for establishment, operation and maintenance of the network. Interledger Dynamic Configuration Protocol (ILDCP) is one of these protocols. | ||

Added ILP over HTTP and removed Route Broadcasting Protocol. I did wonder what "and others necessary" would include.

- RBP is a protocol built on top of ILP, and is used for transferring routing information to build routing tables. | ||
- RBP data is put into the extensible data area of ILP packets. | ||
- A Route Broadcasting Protocol is thought to be a protocol built on top of ILP, and would be used for transferring routing information to build routing tables. | ||
- RBP data would be put into the extensible data area of ILP packets. | ||
- RBP is an idea that does not exist yet. |

I made this section hypothetical. If we want to completely remove it, we need to change the svgs and the numbering.

To me, the third point is already implied by the first one

We can imply that something does exist, but it is not part of the official spec but simply EXPERIMENTAL, which we can still link to. The experimental spec can link to the code.
It also did some auto cleanup. I'll highlight the 2 main changes in comments.
