Learning Objectives

After successfully completing this course, you should be able to: Describe the various OSPF link-state advertisement (LSA) types. Explain the flooding of LSAs in an OSPF network. Describe the shortest-path-first (SPF) algorithm. Describe OSPF area types and operations. Configure various OSPF area types. List useful common commands to troubleshoot and verify OSPF. Isolate different OSPF issues. Summarize and restrict routes. Identify scenarios that require routing policy or specific configuration options. Use routing policy and specific configuration options to implement solutions for various scenarios. Describe basic BGP operation and common BGP attributes. Explain the route selection process for BGP. Describe how to alter the route selection process. Configure some advanced options for BGP peers. Describe various BGP attributes in detail and explain the operation of those attributes. Manipulate BGP attributes using routing policy. List common commands used to troubleshoot and verify BGP. Isolate different issues with BGP communication and configuration. Describe common routing policies used in the enterprise environment. Explain how attribute modifications affect routing decisions. Implement a routing policy for inbound and outbound traffic using BGP. Isolate problems relating to routing policy structure and configuration. Identify common commands for troubleshooting routing policy. Identify environments that may require a modified CoS implementation. Describe the various CoS components and their respective functions. Explain the CoS processing along with CoS defaults on SRX Series Services Gateways. Describe situations when some CoS features are used in the enterprise. Implement some CoS features in an enterprise environment. Verify and troubleshoot CoS. Describe IP multicast traffic flow. Identify the components of IP multicast. Explain how IP multicast addressing works. Describe the need for reverse path forwarding (RPF) in multicast.
