WROU02: Intermediate IPv4/IPv6 Routing
| Delivery | Workshop |
|---|---|
| Duration | 3 days |
| Level of Study | Intermediate |
This workshop covers network infrastructure design principles. After completing this workshop, participants should be able to understand, implement, and configure BGP on ISP/IXP networks.
The course also includes considerable practical work based on various ISP/IXP scenarios and covers configurations, monitoring, and troubleshooting. BGP attributes are also covered in detail, as well as aspects of BGP traffic engineering.
Learning Outcomes
After completing this course students will be able to:
- Learn about routing, OSPF, ISIS, and BGP
- Learn about multihoming and traffic engineering
- Implement a multihomed IPv4/IPv6 ISP network using routing techniques to control traffic flow
Before you start
This course is targeted at engineers and network administrators from both ISP and SOHO/enterprise networks.
It is assumed that participants have a good understanding of routing fundamentals.
In this unit
- ISP network topology overview
- ISP IP addressing plan
- Introduction to Internet routing infrastructure
- 2-byte and 4-byte AS numbers
- BGP operation
- Understanding BGP metric and path selection process
- Configuring BGP within an AS [iBGP, route reflector]
- Configuring BGP between AS numbers [eBGP]
- Controlling routing update traffic [prefix list, distribute list, route map]
- Route summarization with BGP
- BGP traffic engineering [MED, Local pref, AS-path prepend]
