New BGP Modules Arriving at CBT Nuggets

BGP

This should be no surprise as you know I am continuing the popular BGP training modules. Here is a recap of the modules available at CBT Nuggets now. These modules assist with all levels of Cisco and Juniper certification, as well as other certs that touch on BGP (too many to mention).

  • BGP Basic Operations
  • BGP Peerings
  • BGP Advertising NLRI

Here is the module I will be finishing this week:

  • BGP Cisco Routing Policy Mechanisms

This module consists of the following Nuggets:

  1. Module Introduction
  2. The BGP Decision Process
  3. Exploring Command Line Results
  4. InQ and OutQ
  5. IOS BGP Processes
  6. NHT, Event, and the Open Processes
  7. Table Versions
  8. Clearing BGP Sessions
  9. Soft Reconfiguration
  10. Route Refresh
  11. Using Distribute Lists
  12. Extended ACLs
  13. Using Prefix Lists
  14. Using MED

The upcoming module I will be working on is:

Scaling BGP

This is a critical topic area (obviously) and covers topics like peer groups, peer templates, communities, scaling functions, and scaling the network. This module returns to an approach of both Cisco and Juniper examples. Enjoy this new upcoming content!
