An exterior gateway protocol (often given as its acronym, EGP) is a routing protocol used in the TCP/IP protocol suite for providing the information needed for doing path selection between a connected group of Autonomous Systems.

The first EGP was the Exterior Gateway Protocol; this is now obsolete, and no longer in use. It has been replaced by BGP.
