In this course, you'll learn how to configure and verify eBGP peerings in your enterprise network, with valuable guidance on best practice eBGP peering configurations and verifications. You'll move to on explore the neighbor states of BGP. Knowing these states can not only prove critical in the exam, but more importantly, can ensure that you are ready for advanced troubleshooting you might need to perform on your BGP peerings. Next, you'll examine how to advertise IPv4 prefixes in eBGP, including the network statement method and redistribution. You'll explore the complex Cisco-based BGP Best Path Selection Algorithm, which is critical for you to understand the pathing options and manipulations you can make with BGP. Finally, you'll review some of the key points you should know about eBGP. This course can be used in preparation for the 350-401: Implementing and Operating Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies certification exam.
