What you'll learn
- The Course Goal is to provide learners with in-depth knowledge of BGP
- Configure, monitor, and troubleshoot basic BGP to enable interdomain routing in a network scenario with multiple domains
- Use BGP policy controls to influence the route selection process
- Use BGP attributes to influence the route selection process
- Implement the correct BGP configuration to successfully connect the customer network to the Internet in a network scenario where you must support multiple connections
- Identify common BGP scaling issues and enableroute reflection and confederations as possible solutions to these issues in a typical service provider network with multiple BGP connections to other autonomous systems
- Use available BGP tools and features to optimize the scalability of the BGP routing protocol in a typical BGP network

Description
Course Description – BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) Advanced Routing
Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is the routing technology that powers the largest and most sophisticated network in the world today—the Internet. It is the protocol responsible for interconnecting autonomous systems and enabling efficient, scalable, and policy-driven routing between global networks.
BGP is also a foundational component of many modern networking technologies, including Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS), cloud connectivity, service provider architectures, and large-scale enterprise WAN environments. A strong understanding of BGP is essential for any engineer aspiring to work at an advanced level in routing and design.
This course is taught by a dual CCIE-certified expert with more than 10 years of hands-on experience in designing, implementing, and troubleshooting BGP in production networks. The training covers BGP theory, configuration on Cisco IOS routers, best practices, and deep troubleshooting techniques.
The curriculum includes various service provider and enterprise design scenarios, focusing on:
BGP neighbor relationships
Route advertisement and path selection
Attributes and policies for traffic engineering
Advanced BGP features and protocol scalability
Real-world usage rules and design considerations
Students will also work through hands-on exercises that reinforce practical configuration and analysis skills.
Upon successful completion of this course, learners will be prepared to design, implement, and maintain robust, efficient, and policy-driven BGP networks suitable for both enterprise and service provider environments. This training is highly valuable for professionals preparing for CCNP, CCIE, or real-world BGP deployment roles.
Who this course is for:
- Everyone interested in running BGP to create reliable connectivity to the Internet.
- Technical engineers and delegates seeking Cisco certifications including CCNP RS or CCNA/CCNP Service provider or Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert (CCIE Routing & Switching Version 5 ) or CCIE Service Provuder V3.
- This course is recommended for any student interested in mastering advanced Internet and related Cisco technologies.
