In this lecture, you will see the points that will be discussed about Routing in the upcoming lecture.
The main questions that is always asked: "Why do we need routing in our network?"
In in this lecture, I am going to explain to you the importance of routing in our network. We will have an overview about the OSI model and see in which layer does routing and switching happens, then we will see what would be the problems in our network didn't have routing.
By end of this lecture, you will be convinced that Routing is an essence in our networks.
This is an introduction video showing the main points that are going to be discussed in the upcoming lectures regarding the difference between static & dynamic routes.
In this lecture, we are going to talk in details about Static Route and about Dynamic Route and see what are the difference between both routes.
In the static route explanation part, we are going to speak about about static default route and where to be used.
In this lecture, we are going to applies what we have learned from the previous lecture on a Lab. We will configure Static route and Static default route on MikroTik routers, and by end of the LAB we are going to test whether the work is done correctly.
In this lecture, we are going to explain to you what is a static Floating Route. what is the benefit of having a link fail-over in our network, and in which case we can use it.
In this lecture, we are going to apply a LAB and configure Static Floating Route on our MikroTik router to be able to have link fail-over whenever the 1st route goes off then the 2nd route goes active automatically. In this LAB, we will use the "administrative distance" to be able to have our LAB works well.
By end of the LAB, we are going to make a test to check whether the LAB is working properly.
ECMP is a topic that makes confusion for many people. In this lecture, we are going to explain to you what ECMP is and how it works.
In this Lecture, we are going to configure ECMP on the MikroTik router to have a load-balancing to the same network.
ECMP is mainly used when you have 2 WAN connectivity from 2 ISP's and you want your MikroTik router to make a load-balancing sending traffic to both ISP's.
Additionally, we will show you how you can configure ECMP in MikroTik Router in case you want to have one ISP receiving your traffic more than the 2nd one.
End of the Lab, a test will be made to check if the configuration is done correctly.
In every network we require to have routing. However, if routing is not configured correctly then we may face a lot of problems. For this reason, I have designed this course to show you how you can configure routing in MikroTik routers to keep your network operational, functional and scalable.
This course is ideal for students & professionals who are interested to learn routing in MikroTik.
Topics that will be covered in this course are: What is routing,, IGP vs EGP, Distance vector vs Link State, Static route, default static route, floating static route for failover & ECMP for load-balancing in depth.
This course will contains 30% theoretical part and 70% LABs with real scenarios configuration on MikroTik routers. The labs will be based on step-by-step configuration with a testing part by end of each lab to check if the configuration that we have done is working the way we want. So be ready for a lot of fun with MikroTik Routing.
Finally, if you don't have any experience in MikroTik Routing and you want to cover the basic things that you can do as Routing on the MikroTik routers, I advise you to purchase this course and you will surely be able, by end of the course, to configure routing correctly on your MikroTik router.
