Cisco Configuring BGP on Cisco Routers v4.1 (BGP)

About this course

Master BGP on Cisco routers. You will configure, monitor and troubleshoot BGP, build transit autonomous systems, control route selection with policies and attributes, connect customers to providers and scale service provider networks.

What you'll learn

• 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
