Advanced IP Routing in Cisco Networks

Covering all protocol flavors - OSPF, RIP, RIPv2, IGRP, EIGRP - this one-of-a-kind, expert-written guide shows you everything you need for either hands-on work with Cisco IP-routed networks or thorough prep for the super-tough CCIE exam. Written by pros, including the first person outside of Cisco to earn the CCIE, it explains network routing at both theoretical and practical levels, showing you every step from selecting and configuring the appropriate protocol, to integrating multiple protocols, to monitoring, debugging, and troubleshooting a Cisco-routed network. For real-world work with Cisco IP routers, this book can give you the knowledge and confidence that will make implementation and maintenance a whole lot easier and a lot less nerve-wracking. And for Cisco study, you can't find a better tutor than this book. It even includes practice exercises!

Advanced IP Routing in Cisco Networks. Covers All Protocol Flavors - OSPF, RIP, RIPv2, EIGRP. Preps you for the CCIE lab exam with hands-on exercises. Includes network examples and actual router configurations. Cisco makes 80% of the world's routers - digital traffic cops that direct the flow on the Internet, Intranets, LANs, and WANs. Covering all the protocols that run on Cisco IP routers, this clear, illustrated guide gives you the expertise to design, configure, and troubleshoot this vital technology.
