Beginning Routing with EIGRP

Beginning Routing with EIGRP introduces Cisco’s Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol for learners who are developing foundational routing skills or preparing for CCNA-level concepts. It explains how EIGRP establishes neighbor relationships and exchanges routing information, along with key internal mechanisms such as metric calculation, topology table organization, successors, and feasible successors. The course also covers essential configuration and verification commands used in Cisco IOS environments, helping learners observe how routing decisions are formed and maintained in real time. By connecting protocol concepts with practical configuration examples, it makes EIGRP easier to understand and less theoretical, while clearly demonstrating how it adapts to network changes and selects optimal routing paths.

Course Instructor

Keith started his networking career as customer service representative at Cisco Systems in 1996. His desire to learn more soon led him to a position as a Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) engineer on the “Dial-Access” team, and within six months he had obtained his Dial-ISP CCIE. He later became a network consulting engineer and obtained his CCNA certification while teaching the technologies to Cisco employees during his lunch breaks. Keith was the first instructor on Cisco’s TAC Training team, where he taught a wide range of internetworking topics and later developed and taught other courses such as routing protocols, LAN switching, MPLS, 802.1x, and CCNA. After almost 17 years with Cisco, Keith joined a small startup and focused on 802.11 Wi-Fi technologies, during which time he obtained his CWNA certification. He is now very happy to be working as an instructor for Routing & Switching. Keith lives in Raleigh, North Carolina, with his wife, son, and daughter. When he is not teaching Bootcamps, Keith can be found at home with his family, reading, or working in the yard.
