A thorough understanding of Ethernet and IP Fundamentals

Course Description:

This five day intensive workshop is a combination of Routing theory and practical Switch configuration. Students will learn how routing is implemented in the Nortel switch range as well as investigating Core and Edge routing scenarios.

The course divides into 2 key areas:

• Routing Protocols & Theory - OSPF, RIP, BGP etc.
• Switch Configuration - Small, Medium & Large Campus solutions

The Bootcamp is designed to appeal to engineers who need to renew their certification as well as students experienced with other vendors who are new to the Nortel Ethernet Routing Switches.
