Catalog Description
Architecture, components, and operation of routers, and principles of routing and routing protocols. Analysis, configuration, verification, and troubleshooting of the primary routing protocols RIPv1, RIPv2, EIGRP, and OSPF.
Second course of the Cisco Networking Academy Exploration series preparing for the CCNA Certification.
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be
able to:
- Explain the purpose, nature,and operations of a router
- Summarize the processesd routers perform in enabling communications across multiple networks
- Explain the purpose and nature of routing tables
- Determine how a router selects a path and switches packets
- Set up and verify router interfaces
- Describe the purpose and procedure for configuring static routes
- Evaluate the role of dynamic routing protocols in the context of network design
- Differentiate between routing metrics and infer the metric types used by dynamic routing protocols
- Summarize the characteristics of distance vector routing protocols
- Describe the network discovery process of distance vector routing p[rotocols using Routing information Protocol (RIP)
- Check the functions, characteristics, and operations of the RIPv1 protocol
- Compare and contrast classful and classless IP addressing
- Compare and contrast classful and classless network routing behaviors
- Design and implement a classless IP addressing scheme for a given network
- Validate comprehensive RIPv1 configurations
- Test the basic RIPv2 configuration commands and evaluate RIPv2 classless routing updates
- Summarize the main features and operations of the Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP)
- Validate comprehensive EIGRP configurations
- Summarize the basic features and concepts of link-state routing protocols
- Compare and contrast the purpose, nature,and operations of the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol with distance vector routing protocols
