Cisco CCIE Boot Camp: Routing and Switching Part I
 Training Class Description
Start your CCIE Routing and Switching exam preparation here.
As part one of our CCIE lab prep curriculum, this intense 5-day, hands-on course will
expose you to network situations you're likely to experience when taking the CCIE written and practical lab exams. We'll teach you the technologies, help you become
familiar with Cisco's testing techniques, and share our unique methodology for passing the exam. This course will also help you assess your strengths and
weaknesses by testing your knowledge on topics found on the CCIE R&S lab exams such as advanced 3550 configurations, OSPF, BGP, EIGRP, RIPv2, redistribution,
tunneling, route filtering, and bridging. This course does not cover introductory material, so you should have, at minimum, CCNP-level knowledge of the topics covered.
We use a combination of lecture, chalk talk, one-on-one mentoring, and hands-on labs to create a unique experience.
Students do not share any equipment: you will have access to your own pod of equipment on which to perform your
labs. All labs are unique to Global Knowledge, and you'll have 24-hour access to the lab equipment until 6:00 PM the following Sunday.
Audience
Network professionals preparing for the CCIE Routing and Switching practical lab.
Upon Completion of this course you will learn
- How to design sophisticated 3550 topologies not usually found in production networks, but common on a CCIE-level test
- A detailed analysis of NBMA configurations and the dramatic effect interface types have on frame relay configurations
- Advanced redistribution between routing protocols
- How to run RIP over a network that does not allow for broadcasting or multicasting
- Critical requirements necessary for establishing a GRE tunnel frequently missed by CCIE candidates
- The five items you should check when establishing a neighbor relationship in OSPF and how to establish a neighbor relationship over a network that does not allow multicast
- A chart detailing the combinations of OSPF network types and how they interoperate
A comprehensive understanding of the OSPF state tables and database and how to quickly determine if your
OSPF network is operational simply by reading the database on any router in the area
- How to solve complex EIGRP topologies and what errors you should look for when establishing key chain authentication
- A simple rule for correcting split horizons issues
- The three most common misunderstandings in BGP and how they are tested on the CCIE lab
- When to use or not use BGP synchronization on the test
- Complex BGP designs using intricate route maps; see examples of every BGP attribute and learn to spot the correct attribute for a particular task
- Detailed examples of how BGP Next Hop issues are tested on the exam
- Four possible permutations of a distance vector protocol over frame relay
