Configuring Cisco Routers: Advanced Hands-On Workshop

 
Course: 481     Type: Hands-On Training     Duration: 5 Days

Quick Enroll    

You Will Learn How To
  • Optimize Cisco router configuration for large and complex IP internetworks
  • Manage IP information flows with Cisco routers
  • Deploy scalable routing protocols: EIGRP, OSPF and BGP
  • Minimize core routing tables with route summarization
  • Map between private and public addresses with Network Address Translation (NAT)
  • Strengthen network security with Cisco access lists

Course Benefits
Cisco routers are a central component of many complex internetworks. In this course, you gain the knowledge and skills required to master the advanced features of Cisco router configuration.

Who Should Attend
This course is valuable for network managers, engineers, technicians, designers and consultants who are involved in designing and implementing internetworks with Cisco routers. Knowledge of router configuration at the level of Course 466, "Cisco Networking Introduction," is assumed.

Hands-On Training
Throughout this course, extensive hands-on exercises provide you with practical experience configuring Cisco routers. Exercises, performed under the guidance of an expert instructor, include:
  • Configuring VLSM and route summarization with EIGRP
  • Summarizing address spaces
  • Provisioning a tunnel
  • Redistributing routing information between different routing protocols
  • Deploying NAT
  • Transitioning to OSPF
  • Minimizing core routing tables with OSPF stub areas
  • Securing an IP intranet with traffic and session filtering
  • Connecting to other networks using BGP
  • Applying quality of service (QoS) techniques to optimize multiservice IP traffic flows
