Implementing Cisco Enterprise Advanced Routing and Services
Overview
The advanced routing pod for CCNP Enterprise: OSPF and EIGRP at scale, real BGP path selection and policy, VRFs and infrastructure security on live Cisco IOS-XE, not a simulator's simplified subset.
Images included
- Cisco IOS-XE routers (IOSv/IOL images) in a redundant multi-area topology
- A Cisco CSR1000v router image for DMVPN and WAN-edge scenarios
- A Linux test host image for route verification and traffic testing
Environment & resources
A multi-router IOS-XE pod with redundant paths across OSPF, EIGRP and BGP domains, so best-path decisions, convergence and redistribution behave like a real WAN rather than a single-area toy.
Mixed topologies: routers and switches alongside a firewall or application server.
FAQ
How does this relate to the ENCOR core lab?
ENCOR covers the breadth of the core exam; ENARSI (300-410) goes deep on advanced routing and services, the most popular Enterprise concentration.
Is BGP covered at policy level?
Yes, the pod includes a real multi-router BGP topology, not just a single peering pair.
