Cisco Advanced Routing: Enterprise Networks
Enterprise networking has always been a complex web of overlapping technologies. This course will teach you how to configure and troubleshoot routing protocols and IP services using a large-scale network topology.
What you'll learn
Network engineers have long struggled to keep pace with sprawling enterprise networks and the technical complexities associated with that expansion. In this course, Cisco Advanced Routing: Enterprise Networks, you’ll learn to design, implement, and troubleshoot growing networks using a large topology as a testbed. First, you’ll explore common enterprise routing protocols, such as Cisco EIGRP and BGP, and deploy them in accordance with best practices. Next, you’ll discover Cisco Dynamic Multipoint VPN, expanding the network to new WAN sites. Finally, you’ll learn how to optimize enterprise networks using a subset of common IP services relating to management, monitoring, and security. Most of these topics are discussed using both IPv4 and IPv6 in the context of dual-stacking. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of Cisco enterprise networking needed to manage small to medium size enterprise networks.
