Course Code: BGP
Version: V3.2
Duration: 5 days
Price: £1395.00 (ex. VAT)
Overview
The Configuring BGP on Cisco Routers (BGP) 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 Multi-protocol 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.
Pre-Requisites

Target Audience
This course is intended for technical engineers and delegates seeking professional level certification including Cisco Certified Internetwork Professional (CCIP) or Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert (CCIE).
Objectives
Given a network scenario with multiple domains, configure, monitor and troubleshoot basic BGP to enable inter domain 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 optimise the scalability of the BGP routing protocol |

Hi David,
Not too bad - got 935/1000 with pass mark 804.
Will crack on with the ICND2 now so will be back in touch next week maybe depending on how it goes.
Cheers!

| This is my first newsletter, I came across your IOS tips ebook searching through google, and didn't mind getting the newsletter.
Now, I'd like to say wow!
Its awesome,
I'm really glad I signed up--kron jobs on IOS? I didn't know you could do that!
The information is incredibly well presented.
When I can tear myself away from study, I'll update my blog, and give your site a plug, you provide some fantastic resources that you don't really see anywhere else, thanks!
Greets!

Hi
The recent upgrade to the VPN configuration is a real work of art, it now covers the VTI solution. Thanks for a real good product aimed at engineers, it has saved me endless hours.
Best Regards
David White (CCIE #13955) |
just thought id tell you that as a ccna student your newletters make great reading
thanks david

Hi David,
Your apps are some of the best I’ve seen.
I’m contemplating getting a my CCIE in routing and will be looking at purchasing your memorization tool. Thanks.
