ROUTE - Implementing Cisco IP Routing v2.0

Course Description

In this course, you will gain the knowledge and skills needed to plan, implement, and monitor a scalable routed network. You will focus on routing protocols for both IPv4 and IPv6: EIGRP and OSPF for an enterprise and BGP for enterprise Internet connectivity. You will also learn how to redistribute routes, implement path control, and secure Cisco routers.

What You’ll Learn

Routing protocols, network technologies, and remote connectivity options
RIPng in an IPv6 environment
Technologies, operations, and metrics that EIGRP uses
Configure and verify EIGRP in IPv4 and IPv6 environments including optimizing its behavior and named EIGRP configuration
Multiarea OSPF including over different network types and how to optimize its database
Configure and verify OSPFv2 in IPv4 environments and OSPFv3 in IPv4 and IPv6 environments
Route redistribution and how it is implemented using distribute list, prefix list, and route map filtering mechanisms
Use Cisco Express Forwarding for efficient Layer 3 packet forwarding
Implement path control using policy based routing and IP Service Level Agreement (SLA)
Establishing enterprise Internet connectivity for IPv4 and IPv6
BGP for enterprise IPv4 and IPv6 Internet connectivity
Secure Cisco routers according to best practices including the configuring routing protocol authentication

Who Should Attend

Network engineers and technicians
