| IP Routing on Cisco IOS, IOS XE, and IOS XR: An Essential Guide to Understanding and Implementing IP Routing Protocols | ||||||
Service providers and large enterprises are converging on a common IP infrastructure that supports rapid deployment of high-value services. Demand is soaring for highly skilled IP network engineers who can implement and run these infrastructures. Now, one source combines reliable knowledge about contemporary IP routing protocols and expert hands-on guidance for using them with Cisco IOS, IOS XE, and IOS XR operating systems. After concisely reviewing the basics, three Cisco experts fully explain static routing, EIGRP, OSPF, IS-IS, and BGP routing protocols. Next, they introduce advanced routing with policies and redistribution, sophisticated BGP-based traffic engineering, and multicast. They present comprehensive coverage of IPv6, from its multicast implementation to its completely revamped address structure. Finally, they discuss advanced high availability techniques, including fast routing convergence. IP Routing on Cisco IOS, IOS XE, and IOS XR presents each protocol conceptually, with intuitive illustrations, realistic configurations, and appropriate output. To help IOS users master IOS XE and IOS XR, differences in operating systems are explicitly identified, and side-by-side feature command references are presented. All content fully aligns with Learning@Cisco, providing efficient self-study for multiple Cisco Career Certifications, including CCNA®/CCNP®/CCIE® Service Provider, CCIE Routing & Switching, Cisco IOS XR Specialist Certification, and the routing components of several additional Cisco Certifications. * Understand how IOS®, IOS XE, and IOS XR operating systems compare * Master IPv4 concepts, addressing structure, and subnetting * Learn how routers and routing protocols work, and how connected networks and static routes behave from the router’s perspective * Work with EIGRP and distance vector routing * Deploy basic and advanced OSPF, including powerful techniques for organizing routing domains, path selection, and optimization * Compare IS-IS with OSPF, and implement advanced IS-IS multilevel routing, optimization, and path selection * Make the most of BGP and route manipulation, including IOS/IOS XE route maps and IOS XR’s highly scalable Route Policy Language * Use advanced policy-based route manipulation and filtering * Implement route redistribution: rules, potential problems, and solutions * Leverage BGP communities, summaries, and other router conservation techniques * Discover how IPv6 changes IP address and command structure * Establish highly efficient multicast routing in IPv4 and IPv6 environments * Systematically improve network availability and operational uptime through event driven detection and fast routing convergence For more information, visit http://www.informit.com/store/ip-routing-on-cisco-ios-ios-xe-and-ios-xr-an-essential-9781587144233. |
