Features: This book is not only an excellent guide for router configuration but also a study material for the CCNP Routing exam. It covers routing and configuration information from basic IP principles to advanced routing concepts and protocols (such as BGP, IS-IS protocols). Each chapter discusses a specific routing technology or protocol, enabling you to configure experimental equipment for home, office, or remote access through a series of experimental scenarios and practical exercises. Each chapter includes 5 experimental scenarios, providing real-world cases that may be encountered in actual configurations, helping you gain a deeper understanding of the chapter topics while assisting CCNP candidates in assessing their mastery of key concepts. Routing configuration is a mandatory subject for the CCNP exam. This book provides practical training for routing exams, equipping you with hands-on skills for configuring routers in various network environments. The book is divided into 9 chapters, covering Internet Protocol, routing principles, OSPF protocol principles, advanced OSPF and integrated IS-IS, Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP), Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), advanced BGP, route redistribution and optimization, and CCNP routing configuration simulation experiments. Each chapter includes 5 experimental scenarios and comprehensive explanations that can be applied to real-world operations. At the end of each chapter, there are practice exercises to test your understanding of the key concepts. Answers to all exercises are provided in Appendix C. The book is well-structured, with clear concepts, abundant examples, and strong practicality. It is suitable for readers with CCNA-level knowledge preparing for the CCNP Routing exam and also serves as an excellent resource for learning router configuration.
