Cisco CCNP Enterprise Preparation : EIGRP Masterclass

About this course

Gain an edge with a comprehensive understanding of Cisco's EIGRP Routing Protocol.This course is designed to cover the EIGRP Routing Protocol for all Cisco CCNP Enterprise Certification Exams including ENCOR, ENARSI and ENSLD. The course also includes Multiple Labs to help students gain an understanding of implementing Cisco EIGRP in real world networks and scenarios. Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) is an advanced distance-vector routing protocol that is used on a computer network for automating routing decisions and configuration. The protocol was designed by Cisco Systems as a proprietary protocol, available only on Cisco routers. Functionality of EIGRP was converted to an open standard in 2013. EIGRP is used on a router to share routes with other routers within the same autonomous system. Unlike other well known routing protocols, such as RIP, EIGRP only sends incremental updates, reducing the workload on the router and the amount of data that needs to be transmitted. EIGRP replaced the Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP) in 1993. One of the major reasons for this was the change to classless IPv4 addresses in the Internet Protocol, which IGRP could not support.Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) is an interior gateway protocol suited for many different topologies and media. In a well designed network, EIGRP scales well and provides extremely quick convergence times with minimal network traffic. This is an important area of the Cisco CCNP Enterprise Certification exams :- ENCOR, ENARSI and ENSLD.This course covers the following TopicsEIGRP FeaturesEIGRP OperationEIGRP RoutingEIGRP Reliable TransportEIGRP MetricsEIGRP Neighbor AdjacenciesEIGRP Path SelectionEIGRP vs OSPFEIGRP for IPv6EIGRP Load Balancing and Traffic SharingLAB : EIGR
