BGP for the Enterprise

As Enterprise, Government and Campus networks grow, it becomes increasingly necessary to implement the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). BGP might be required due to scalability concerns, multihoming requirements or simply a desire to have more control over routing. One might even require BGP on only a single router connecting to an ISP or Cloud Provider. Regardless of the reason, an in-depth knowledge of BGP is critical for Network Engineers working within these types of networks. This course provides details of BGP, starting with the problems it was designed to solve and how it is different than Interior Gateway Protocols. You will then proceed onto learning about iBGP and eBGP differences, BGP Path Attributes, the BGP Best Path Selection Algorithm, Filtering, Summarize, Communities, BGP Security…and a whole lot more. This course is your one-stop-shop to learn everything necessary to implement BGP for the Enterprise.
