Building Scalable Cisco Internetworks V3 (BSCI) — A 5-Day Course

Synopsis

This 5-day BSCI course is designed to teach network administrators of medium-to-large network sites on the use of advanced IP addressing and routing in implementing scalability for Cisco routers that are connected to LANs and WANs. The goal is to train network administrators to dramatically increase the number of routers and sites using these techniques instead of redesigning the network when additional sites or wiring configurations are added. BSCI v3.0 delivers these techniques over the course of eight modules, with each module containing several lessons and numerous hands-on labs.

Course Objectives

After completing this course, students will be able to:

Describe the converged network requirements of various network and networked applications within the Cisco network architectures
Implement and verify Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) operations
Build a scalable multiarea network with Open Shortest Path First Protocol (OSPF)
Configure Integrated Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System Protocol (IS-IS) in a single area
Implement and verify Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) for enterprise Internet service provider (ISP) connectivity
Implement and verify multicast forwarding using Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) and related protocols
Describe how Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) functions to satisfy the increasingly complex requirements of hierarchical addressing
Manipulate routing and packet flow

Intended Audience

This course is intended for:

Candidates for Cisco CCNP, CCDP, CCIP and CCIE Routing and Switching and CCIE Communications and Services certifications
Network administrators and technicians responsible for implementing and troubleshooting complex routed network environments
Network administrators responsible for implementing and managing medium-to-large business networks
