 Chapter 1, “Internet Protocol”Chapter 1 covers basic IP addressing, variable-length subnet masks, and subnetting topics. IP concepts are reviewed and explained, followed by an explanation of the IP routing table on Cisco routers and instructions about how to minimize the IP routing table using summarization. Chapter 2, “Routing Principles” Chapter 2 covers the basic information required on Cisco routers to route IP data across an IP network. Topics include what a distance-vector protocol is and how to configure one on Cisco routers. Link-state routing protocols are described and configured. Finally, IP routing tables are covered in more detail using common IProuting algorithms, such as RIP and IGRP. Chapter 3, “Basic Open Shortest Path First” Chapter 3 covers basic OSPF routing principles and how OSPF routing is fundamental for any small or large network. Basic OSPF terminology is described and configured. The chapter briefly explains why OSPF is considered an improved routing protocol over RIP by explaining how OSPF discovers, chooses, and maintains routing tables.Nonbroadcast multiaccess (NBMA) is demonstrated using a common network topology. Chapter 4, “Advanced OSPF and Integrated Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System” Chapter 4 covers the more advanced topics in OSPF and another link-state routing protocol, IS-IS. OSPF is explained in more detail, and the chapter explains how OSPF is used in large IP routing environments and how OSPF can be configured to reduce IP routing tables and CPU usage, and lower the memory requirements of access or edge routers. OSPF is a popular IP routing protocol, so most Cisco certifications, including CCNP and CCIE, heavily test on OSPF. Chapter 5, “Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol” Chapter 5 focuses on a protocol developed by Cisco Systems and used on Cisco IOS routers only, namely Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP). EIGRP is explained and configured on Cisco routers. You discover how EIGRP learns about new neighbors and how EIGRP operates in NMBA networks. Chapter 6, “Basic Border Gateway Protocol” Chapter 6 covers the most important routing protocol in use today, Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). The basics terms and configuration options are described to help you appreciate the powerful nature of BGP. There are five practical scenarios to complete your understanding of BGP to help you appreciate its complexity. Chapter 7, “Advanced BGP” Chapter 7 describes BGP in greater detail; in particular, the chapter covers how BGP deals with large networks. Scalability issues are presented, and ways to overcome large BGP networks are covered and configured on Cisco routers. Chapter 8, “Route Redistribution and Optimization” Chapter 8 covers the issues and challenges facing networks when information from one routing algorithm is redistributed into another. This chapter also covers how information can be controlled to ensure that the network is routing IP as correctly and efficiently as possible. Chapter 9, “CCNP Routing Self-Study Lab” Chapter 9 is designed to assist you in your final preparation for the Routing 2.0 exam by providing you a lab scenario that incorporates many of the technologies and concepts covered in this ebook. The exercises presented are a combination of all the most critical topics found in this book into one scenario. Full working configurations and sample displays are presented.
