Cisco CCNP Implementing Cisco IP Routing , Part 2 of 4: OSPF and Routing

Implementing Cisco IP Routing is a qualifying exam for the Cisco Certified Network Professional CCNP®. This course starts with the Open Shortest Path First Protocol both describing its function as well as how OSPF routes packets and to verify and configure OSPF in a WAN. Next it describes network performance problems, considerations for routing protocols and ends with controlling and routing traffic.
