Cisco CCIE360 R&S Advanced Workshop 1

This 5 day course provides knowledge and hands-on experience related to both configuring and troubleshooting the following Cisco Routing and Switching topics: Cisco Catalyst Switch core configuration tasks, Interior gateway protocols (IGPs): Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP), and Routing Information Protocol version 2 (RIPv2), Route redistribution, Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), MPLS Layer 3 VPN?s, IP multicast, Router and Cisco Catalyst quality of service (QoS). After completing the lectures on these technologies that include best practice you will complete labs based on that specific technology. 

If you have purchased the CCIE 360 E-learning Packages, please do not attempt the 360RSW05-LAB-GA01 or 360RSW05-LAb-GA02 before attending this class.

Prerequisites

Attendees should meet the following prerequisites: 

• A valid CCNP Certification or equivalent understanding of configuring and troubleshooting data link layer technologies, IGP routing protocols, basic redistribution and BGP. 
• Attained a passing score on the CCIE written exam 350-001 or 400-101 exam. 

Objectives

After attending this course you should be able to: 

• Describe the Cisco 360 Learning Program for CCIE R&S and explain how it addresses expert-level networking issues 
• Discuss your baseline status for Cisco CCIE® lab readiness 
• Resolve expert-level Layer 2 and DMVPN task analysis, configuration and troubleshooting issues 
• Resolve expert-level core task analysis, configuration, and troubleshooting issues 
• Resolve expert-level BGP issues from both a configuration and troubleshooting perspective 
• Resolve expert-level MPLS L3 VPN configuration tasks. 
• Resolve expert-level multicast task analysis, configuration, and troubleshooting issues 
• Resolve expert-level IP connectivity issues regardless of whether they involve IPv4 or IPv6 
• Resolve expert-level router MQC QoS task analysis, configuration, and troubleshooting issues 
• Resolve expert-level Network Services task analysis, configuration, and troubleshooting issues 
• Resolve expert-level multitopic core and advanced task analysis, configuration, and troubleshooting issues 

Target Audience

This course is recommended for CCIE candidates who are preparing for the CCIE Routing and Switching Lab Exam.

Certification

Recommended as preparation for:

• The Cisco CCIE Practical Exam.

The CCIE lab exam is an eight-hour, hands-on exam which requires you to configure and troubleshoot a series of complex networks to given specifications. Knowledge of troubleshooting is an important skill and candidates are expected to diagnose and solve issues as part of the CCIE lab exam. You will not configure end-user systems, but are responsible for all devices residing in the network (hubs, etc.). Point values and testing criteria are provided.
