This Advanced L3 routing course combines individual topics such as OSPF, BGP, Multicast, VXLAN, ECMP, and other Layer 3 topics into a single two-day hands on lab class.  These issues are ripe for the Data Center network engineers and product developers as these large, complex, multi-tier networks have needed to grow laterally blowing out of the Spanning Tree and VLAN tag capabilities.

This Hands On OSPF course dives into the worlds most popular internal gateway protocol.  The course covers the protocol method and communication process that OSPF uses to form adjacencies, then dissects the shortest path first process.  OSPF uses Areas for scalability, and the course explores these capabilities as well.  Finally the course explores some OSPF features such as High Availability all built on GNS3 hands on labs.

The most popular internal gateway routing protocol is the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol.  Having hands-on experience configuring and observing how this protocol works is crucial in operating and IP based network today.  This swift, one day, 8 hr. class uses a "follow me" learning approach to build skills, the student will get a clear understanding of OSPF.

Knowing the fundamentals of the BGP routing protocol is vital to anyone who is in the networking field today, whether it be Service Provider level or Enterprise level. This insightful and revealing course has been designed to focus on the systems approach, the engineering thinking, behind the world of BGP Routing.

The most popular external gateway routing protocol is the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP).  BGP is perhaps the most complex protocols of all the routing protocols with many features and policies.  It is impossible to cover everything on BGP in a day, but we will provide a solid understanding of BGP and it's many features in this course.  Having hands-on experience configuring and observing how this protocol works is crucial in operating and IP based network today.  This swift, one day, 8 hr. class uses a "follow me" learning approach to build skills, the student will get a clear understanding of BGP.
