Overview
This course addresses
the tasks that network managers and administrators need
to perform when managing access and controlling overhead
traffic in growing routed networks once basic
connectivity has been established.
Recommended
for those interested in becoming a Cisco Certified
Network Professional (CCNP) or a Cisco Certified Design
Professional (CCDP).
The
course discusses router capabilities used to control
traffic over LANs and WANs, as well as connecting a
corporate network to an Internet Service Provider (ISP).
This is a hands-on workshop with numerous lab
exercises applying the course concepts.
Provides
preparation for exam 642-801
and assumes that the
student has already completed the Interconnecting Cisco
Network Devices (ICND) course or has equivalent
internetworking experience.
•
Simplification of IP address management at branch
offices by implementing a hierarchical design.
•
Implementation of appropriate technologies for a
scalable routed internetwork that includes link state
protocols and redistribution.
•
Configuration of edge routers to properly interconnect
into the BGP cloud for a single or multi-homed
interconnection to an ISP's BGP network.
•
Selection and configuration of appropriate access lists
for controlling accessibility to networks or devices and
to minimize overhead traffic.
•
Includes coverage of OSPF,
EIGRP, IS-IS, and BGP routing protocols, hierarchical design,
route redistribution, route maps, and policy-based
routing.
