Training: Course Outline

Building Scalable Cisco Internetworks (BSCI)

The goal of this course is to train network administrators to grow a dramatically increased number of routers/sites using these techniques instead of redesigning the network when additional sites or wiring configurations are added.



At Course Completion

After completing the course, students will be able to:

  • Describe advanced IP addressing to include variable-length subnet mask (VLSM), route summarization, classless interdomain routing (CIDR), basic IP Version 6 (IPv6), and Network Address Translation (NAT) with route maps
  • Identify advanced IP routing principles including static and dynamic routing characteristics and the concepts of classless routing and network boundary summarization
  • Configure Routing Information Protocol Version 2 (RIPv2) for a scalable network
  • Configure Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) for a scalable network
  • Configure Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) for a scalable multiarea network
  • Configure Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (IS-IS) for a scalable multiarea network
  • Manipulate routing updates and packet flow using redistribution, distribution lists, administrative distance, route maps, and policy-based routing
  • Configure basic Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) for internal and external connections to include path selection process, default behavior of BGP, and multihoming

Student Responsibilities
In order for a class to be successful, all students should share the same general level of knowledge and experience. If a participant does not demonstrate these, the instructor will take the necessary steps either to prepare the participant or place him/her in a more appropriate course. This policy is intended to maintain the high level of quality control that you have come to expect.
