Building Scalable Cisco Internetworks
Revision: TE1208_20060318
Course Length:
5 Days
Course Description:
This course instructs network administrators of medium-to-large network sites on the use of advanced IP addressing and routing in implementing scalability for Cisco routers connected to LANs and WANs. The goal is to train network administrators to grow a dramatically increased number of routers/sites using these techniques instead of redesigning the network when additional sites or wiring configurations are added.
Who Should Attend:
This course is designed for Network administrators and technicians who are responsible for implementing and troubleshooting complex routed network environments; CCIP, CCNP, and CCDP candidates; CCIE Routing and Switching candidates; and CCIE Communications and Services candidates.
Benefits of Attendance:
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:
- Describe advanced IP addressing.
- Identify advanced IP routing principles.
- Configure Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol for a scalable network.
- Configure Open Shortest Path First for a scalable multiarea network.
- Configure Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (IS-IS) for a scalable multiarea network.
- Manipulate routing updates and packet flow using redistribution, distribution lists, administrative distance, route maps, and policy-based routing.
- Configure basic Border Gateway Protocol for internal and external Border Gateway Protocol connections.
Prerequisites:
Students must have the skills necessary to pass the CCNA certification test. Participants should have a working knowledge of commonly used networking terms and topologies; the basic functions of a network protocol; fundamental network device; the OSI reference model; use of Windows 95/NT to run multiple applications; accessing the Internet or an intranet; and binary and hexadecimal numbering.
