Features: This book is not only an excellent router configuration guide but also a study material for the CCNP Routing exam. It covers routing principles, advanced routing concepts, and protocols (such as BGP, IS-IS), along with routing and configuration information. Each chapter discusses a specific routing technology or protocol, enabling you to configure home, office, or remote access experimental equipment 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 hands-on training for routing exams, equipping you with practical skills for configuring routers in various network environments. The book is divided into 9 chapters, covering Internet Protocol (IP), routing principles, OSPF protocol concepts, 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. Practical exercises are provided at the end of each chapter to help you 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, as well as a valuable resource for those learning router configuration.
