To fully benefit from this course, the BSCI v2.0
student typically will have attended the Cisco CCNA curriculum and
passed the CCNA certification test. Successful students must have
the following prerequisite skills and knowledge to be at a level
appropriate for entering BSCI v2.0:
Networking terms, numbering schemes, and topologies
Open System Interconnection (OSI) reference
model
Operating and configuring a Cisco router
TCP/IP stack and configuring IP addresses
IP subnetting to include complex subnetting
and variable-length subnet masking (VLSM)
Routing protocol operation and configuration
for Routing Information Protocol (RIP), Interior Gateway Routing
Protocol (IGRP), Enhanced IGRP (EIGRP), and Open
Shortest Path First (OSPF) single-area networks
Using, implementing, and configuring static
and default routes
Verifying basic router configurations using
show and debug command output
Course Content
The BSCI 2.0 course is recommended training for individuals
seeking certification as a Cisco Certified Network Professional
(CCNP). BSCI 2.0 instructs network administrators of medium-to-large
network sites on the use of advanced IP addressing and routing in
implementing scalability for Cisco routers connected to LANs and
WANs. The goal is to train network administrators to grow a dramatically
increased number of routers/sites using these techniques instead
of redesigning the network when additional sites or wiring configurations
are added.
Course Objectives
After completing this course, students will be able
to:
Describe advanced IP addressing to include variable-length
subnet mask (VLSM), route summarization, classless interdomain
routing (CIDR), basic IP Version 6 (IPv6), and Network Address
Translation (NAT) with route maps
Identify advanced IP routing principles including
static and dynamic routing characteristics and the concepts of
classless routing and network boundary summarization
Configure basic Border Gateway Protocol (BGP)
for internal and external connections to include path selection
process, default behavior of BGP, and multihoming
