EIGRPv6 Crash Course

EIGRP Crash Course (Taught by Laz Diaz)

This is a self-paced, video-based course focused specifically on EIGRP for IPv6, designed to take networking professionals from foundational review through to real-world configuration and troubleshooting. Rather than being a purely theoretical lecture series, the course is structured as a hands-on workshop with a strong emphasis on practical lab work throughout.

The curriculum opens with a review of core EIGRP concepts, making sure students are solid on the fundamentals before moving forward. From there, it shifts into an IPv6 recap, refreshing the addressing and protocol knowledge needed for the rest of the course. With that foundation in place, the material then focuses specifically on what changes when running EIGRP over IPv6 compared to the more commonly taught IPv4 implementation — a distinction that often causes confusion for engineers transitioning between the two.

After the conceptual groundwork is covered, the course walks through lab setup, configuration, and verification procedures, followed immediately by a hands-on lab where students apply what they've learned in a practical environment. It then advances into more sophisticated configuration topics, reinforced by a second hands-on lab, before wrapping up with a module dedicated to performance tuning and best practices for deploying EIGRP for IPv6 in real production networks.

The course is taught by Laz Diaz, who is associated with The Networking Doctors brand and has authored networking reference material as well. This course seems well suited for network engineers, CCNP-track students, or anyone who already understands standard EIGRP and wants focused, practical training on its IPv6-specific implementation and behavior.
