Design Principles for IPv4 & IPv6 Addressing
Design Principles for IPv4 and IPv6 Addressing helps learners understand how to create logical addressing plans that are scalable, easy to summarize, and suitable for long-term network operations. The course explains how strong addressing design supports simpler routing, smoother growth, better troubleshooting, and more effective policy implementation. Learners move from initial network assessment into IPv4 and IPv6 prefix planning, including RFC1918 usage, contiguous address allocation, summarization, NAT considerations, and IPv6 prefix acquisition. The course connects these planning decisions to real network design scenarios where structure and consistency are essential. This course is useful for exam preparation as well as for engineers who are planning new networks or improving existing address structures. By the end, learners gain a practical foundation for building addressing plans that support scalable, manageable, and future-ready network environments.

Keith Bogart
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.
