Description
The Configuring BGP on Cisco Routers (BGP) v3.2 course provides students with in-depth knowledge of BGP, the
routing protocol that is one of the underlying foundations of the Internet and new-world technologies such as
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS). This curriculum covers the theory of BGP, configuration of BGP on Cisco
IOS routers, detailed troubleshooting information and hands-on exercises that provide students with the skills
needed to configure and troubleshoot BGP networks in customer environments. Different service solutions in the
curriculum cover BGP network design issues and usage rules for various BGP features preparing students to design
and implement efficient, optimal and trouble free BGP networks. Objectives
After completing this course the student should be able to:
- Given a network scenario with multiple domains, configure, monitor and troubleshoot basic BGP to enable interdomain routing
- Given a network scenario where connections to multiple ISPs must be
supported, use BGP policy controls to influence the route selection
process with minimal impact on BGP route processing
- Given a network scenario where multiple connections must be
supported, use BGP attributes to influence the route selection process
- Given customer connectivity requirements, implement the correct BGP
configuration to successfully connect the customer?s network to the
Internet
- Given a typical service provider network with multiple BGP
connections to other autonomous systems, enable the provider network to
behave as a transit autonomous system
- Given a typical service provider network, identify common BGP
scaling issues and enable route reflection and confederations as
possible solutions to these issues
- Given a typical BGP network, use available BGP tools and features to optimize the scalability of the BGP routing protocol
Prerequisites
- Completion of Interconnecting Cisco Networking Devices (ICND) or Cisco Certified Networking Associate (CCNA)
- Completion of Building Scalable Cisco Internetworks (BSCI) or equivalent HSRP
Who Should Attend
The primary audience for this course is as follows:
- Pre- and post sales technical engineers who are responsible for designing, implementing, or troubleshooting BGP networks.
The secondary audience for this course is as follows:
- Personnel who perform other network job functions, such as network performance or design, in a BGP networking environment.
- Candidates seeking professional-level certification, including Cisco CCIP® or CCIE® status.
