10 PRACTICAL SCENARIOS
From session establishment to AS migration. Open a workbook to see the behavior you’ll configure and verify.
Work through TCP session establishment, eBGP loopback peering, connected checks, TTL behavior, GTSM, PPPoE, and MPLS-based alternatives.
Build iBGP and eBGP relationships using full mesh, peer groups, templates, authentication, loopback sources, and next-hop corrections. Then inspect MED and third-party next-hop behavior in actual UPDATEs.
Replace full-mesh iBGP with Route Reflectors, troubleshoot reflected routes that remain unreachable, add redundancy, and inspect the attributes that prevent reflection loops.
Build a multi-sub-AS confederation, observe how paths change inside and outside the confederation, and verify the policy attributes that cross confed-eBGP boundaries.
Control the interaction between BGP and another routing protocol, inspect RIB failure, advertise a backup only when a condition changes, and inject a route based on evidence in the BGP table.
Create and verify aggregates, suppress or reveal selected component routes, inspect AGGREGATOR, ATOMIC_AGGREGATE, and AS_SET, and expose the black-hole risk created by careless manual summaries.
Build policies with prefix lists, route maps, filter lists, AS-PATH regular expressions, maximum-prefix controls, AS-path limits, and ORF. Then verify where a route exists at each stage of BGP processing.
Configure external and internal multipath, learn why apparently equal paths do not always qualify, and build unequal-cost iBGP load sharing based on external link bandwidth.
Walk through several private and public ASN combinations until the behavior of remove-private-as and its all option becomes visible instead of theoretical.
Move a router from one ASN to another while maintaining peering compatibility, then verify exactly how local-as , no-prepend , replace-as , and dual-as change OPEN and UPDATE messages.
INCLUDED WITH BGP MASTERY
The package includes the lab environment, workbooks, practice files, and solved labs with final configurations.
VIRTUAL MACHINE
An EVE-NG virtual machine with the required device images already installed. Import the OVA to set up your lab environment.
WORKBOOKS
Instructions and tasks for each of the 10 BGP scenarios. Follow the workbook to configure the network and verify the results.
PRACTICE FILES
EVE-NG topology files for all 10 scenarios. Open the .unl lab files and complete the tasks in the matching workbook.
SOLUTION FILES
Lab files (.unl) with the completed configurations for each scenario, so you can compare your work with the solution.
WHO IT’S FOR
Focused practice for network engineers who want to understand BGP behavior through configuration and verification.
Recommended starting point: IP addressing, routing tables and basic router configuration.
Build, verify and troubleshoot the labs yourself.
Return to the labs at your own pace with lifetime access.
Choosing your next step? BGP Mastery focuses on one protocol. CCNP ENCOR covers a broader enterprise networking lab path.
