Learning Objectives
After completion of this course, students will be able to… Describe how to configure, monitor, and troubleshoot basic BGP to enable interdomain routing in a network scenario with multiple domains. Describe how to use BGP policy controls to influence the BGP route selection process in a network scenario in which you must support connections to multiple ISPs. Describe how to use BGP attributes to influence the route selection process in a network scenario where you must support multiple connections. Describe how to successfully connect the customer network to the Internet in a network scenario in which multiple connections must be implemented. Describe how to configure the service provider network to behave as a transit AS in a typical implementation with multiple BGP connections to other autonomous systems. Enable route reflection as possible solution to BGP scaling issues in a typical service provider network with multiple BGP connections to other autonomous systems. Describe the available BGP tools and features to optimize the scalability of the BGP routing protocol in a typical BGP network.
