Who Should Attend

This course is intended for Network professionals who want to correctly implement routing based solutions within a given network design, using Cisco IOS services and features, where implementation includes planning, configuring and verification.

Prerequisites

Attendees should meet the following prerequisites:

  • ICND1 Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices Part 1
  • ICND2 Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices Part 2
  • Or

  • CCNABC Cisco CCNA Certification Fast Track Programme
  • Practical experience in installing, operating and maintaining Cisco routers & switches in an enterprise environment is recommended.

    Session Objectives

  • At the end of the course delegates will be able to;-
    • Plan and document the configuration and verification of routing protocols and its optimization in enterprise networks.
    • Identify the technologies, components, and metrics of EIGRP to implement and verify EIGRP routing in diverse, large-scale internetworks based on requirements.
    • Identify, analyze and match OSPF multiarea routing functions and benefits for routing efficiencies in network operations in order to implement and verify OSPF routing in a complex enterprise network.
    • Implement and verify a redistribution solution in a multi-protocol network that uses IOS features to control path selection and loop free topology according to a given network design and requirements.
    • Evaluate common network performance issues and identify the tools needed to provide a layer 3 path control that uses IOS features to control the path.
    • Implement and verify a Layer 3 solution using BGP to connect an enterprise network to a service provider
