Upon completion of the course, students should be able to: - Configure, monitor, and troubleshoot basic BGP to enable inter-domain routing in a network scenario with multiple domains - Use BGP policy controls to influence the route selection process with minimal impact on BGP route processing in a network scenario where you must support connections to multiple ISPs - Use BGP attributes to influence the route selection process in a network scenario where you must support multiple connections - Implement the correct BGP configuration to successfully connect the customer network to the Internet in a network scenario where you must support multiple connections - Enable the provider network to behave as a transit autonomous system in a typical service provider network with multiple BGP connections to other autonomous systems - Identify common BGP scaling issues and enable route reflection and confederations as possible solutions to these issues in a typical service provider network with multiple BGP connections to other autonomous systems
