The terminology is confusing here. Think of the families of interior
and exterior routing protcols. The ones in actual use are:

        interior (note lower case) exterior
        ------------------------- --------
        RIP BGP-4
        IGRP (going away) Some researchy things like IDMR and
        EIGRP IDRP, not likely to be on the lab
        OSPF
        ISIS

The Exterior Gateway Protocol (upper case, EGP) is completely
obsolete and Cisco dropped support for it. I doubt it has been used
in production in the last ten years.
