Synopsis

* A fresh look at routing and routing protocols in today's networks. A primer on the subject, but with thorough, robust coverage of an array of routing topics * Written by a network/routing instructor who could never find quite the right book for his students -so he wrote his own * Coverage of all routing protocols. In-depth coverage of interior routing protocols, with extensive treatment of OSPF. Includes overview of BGP as well * Not written as a "pass the test" guide. Rather, a close look at real world routing with many examples, making it an excellent choice for preparing for a variety of certification exams * Many extras including a networking primer, TCPIP coverage with thorough explanations of subnetting / VLSMs / CIDR addressing, route summarization, discontiguous networks, longest match principal, and more.

A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

If you want to really understand routing, read on

When James Macfarlane began teaching network routing, he simply could not find books that explained the subject clearly, understandably, and accurately. So he wrote his own. Authored by a consultant who has trained hundreds of networking professionals, this guide is designed to clear up the confusion and make the field of routing what Macfarlane believes it should be understandable, interesting, and even fun.

The goal of this book is to provide you with a working knowledge of routing technology and the confidence to use what you′ve learned. You′ll take a major step toward passing an array of certification exams and be better prepared for the ultimate test the real world.

From this book you will:

• Get a complete review of core networking fundamentals, including packet forwarding and an overview of the TCP/IP protocol suite
• Understand classless addressing once and for all subnetting, VLSMs, and CIDR
• Learn exactly how routing works, starting at the workstation
• Gain a working knowledge of route summarization, discontiguous networks, hierarchical addressing, and the longest match principle
• Build a foundation for more complex routing scenarios by understanding the legacy protocols RIP and IGRP
• Understand EIGRP and OSPF, and manage these routing protocols on large networks
• Get an introduction to the Border Gateway Protocol, the routing system that ties the entire Internet together
