IT Technology/Network II/Router

In Routing Technologies we will look at network topologies in enterprise size networks. Then we will look at major Routing protocols with focus on OSPF and BGP.

Subjects

• Learning and playing with Cisco command syntax
• Complex enterprise network models

Exercises

• A company has three sites each running OSPF
  • Site HQ: 800 users in 20 physical networks.
  • Site B1: 400 users in 15 physical networks.
  • Site B2: 300 users in 10 physical networks.
• The three sites will be connected through MPLS using BGP
  • Each site is connected to two different providers MPLS circuits.
    • Site HQ: Provider A: 100 Mbps B: 50 Mbps
    • Site B1: Provider A: 50 Mbps B: 25 Mbps
    • Site B2: Provider A: 50 Mbps B: 25 Mbps
• Design the network for maximum Route summariazation
• The company wants to use QoS later for IP telephony
