This chapter from Authorized Self-Study Guide: Designing Cisco Network Service Architectures, 2nd ed. examines a select number of topics on both advanced IP addressing and select design issues with Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP), and Open Shortest Path First (OSPF). As one would expect, advanced IP addressing and routing protocol design encompasses a large amount of detail that has already filled a number of books on routing protocols and networking best practices. The text will parallel topics covered in the Design course.
Learn how to:
- Design addressing solutions to support summarization
- Design routing solutions to support summarization, route filtering, and redistribution
- Design scalable EIGRP, OSPF and BGP routing solutions for the enterprise
