Description
The Advanced Routing and Switching for System
Engineers (ARSFE) 2.0 course helps learners to configure and monitor
advanced routing and switching services in Cisco devices. The course
starts with an overview of advanced technologies such as security,
bandwidth and application optimization and quality of service (QoS) as
implemented in Cisco devices. The main families of Cisco routers and
switches are described with respect to their hardware and software
characteristics. The course then focuses on some advanced aspects of
network management, including secure management access (Secure Shell
[SSH]) and network monitoring with Syslog, Network Time Protocol (NTP),
and Netflow services. High availability on Layer 2 (EtherChannel and
Rapid Spanning Tree [RSTP]) and on Layer 3 (Hot Standby Router Protocol
[HSRP], Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol [VRRP], and Gateway Load
Balancing Protocol [GLBP]) is presented through configuration examples,
followed by description of hardware and software redundancy on high-end
modular switches. The course concludes with extensive explanation of
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Virtual Private Networks (VPNs),
with special attention to troubleshooting aspects of this technology. Objectives
Upon completion of this course, you should be able to: - Define advanced capabilities of Cisco routers and switches, and
list the hardware platforms that implement the advanced technologies.
- Securely manage Cisco network devices and monitor the network using Syslog, NTP, and NetFlow services.
- Configure Layer 2 and Layer 3 high availability on Cisco
routers and switches, including hardware and software redundancy on
modular switches.
- Configure and troubleshoot MPLS VPNs.
