BGP - Configuring BGP on Cisco Routers
This training, which is designed for 5 days, introduces students to the principles of the BGP routing protocol. Students will learn not only how to use BGP to connect clients to the provider's network or several segments of the provider's network, but also how to use additional mechanisms for optimizing the route selection process, for example, path attributes. In addition, the possibilities of filtering routes using various technologies will be considered.
The training contains 5 extensive laboratory works, during which students will improve the skills of implementing and configuring BGP on devices running Cisco IOS.
This training will be most useful for system administrators, system engineers, network engineers, technical support engineers who work with routing based on the BGP protocol.
For understanding the materials of this training students will need have a basic knowledge of routing in IP networks. In addition, it is recommended to have the knowledge and experience equal to «Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices Part 1 (ICND1)», «Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices Part 2 (ICND2)», «Implementing Cisco IP Routing (ROUTE)» courses.
