Overview
The Implementing Cisco Service Provider Advanced Routing Solutions (SPRI) course is a five-day professional training programme that teaches the theories and practical techniques required to integrate advanced routing technologies in service provider core networks.
The course expands your knowledge of routing protocols, route policy, multicast routing, Multiprotocol Label Switching, MPLS Traffic Engineering, segment routing and IPv6 transition technologies. It focuses on the implementation, verification and troubleshooting skills needed to operate advanced service provider network environments.
Through lessons and hands-on activities, you will work with multiarea OSPF, multilevel IS-IS, BGP route selection and scalability, route redistribution, Routing Policy Language, MPLS, segment routing, PIM-SM, interdomain multicast and dynamic Rendezvous Point distribution.
This course prepares you for the Implementing Cisco Service Provider Advanced Routing Solutions (300-510 SPRI) exam and qualifies for 40 Cisco Continuing Education credits toward recertification.
