Description

The Cisco CCNA exam now requires that you know BGP. This is the exam topic Cisco has listed for the exam: “Configure and verify single-homed branch connectivity using eBGP IPv4 (limited to peering and route advertisement using Network command only)”

In this course, you will learn the basics of BGP as well as investigate multiple troubleshooting scenarios to help you prepare for the exam.

BGP4 is standard for Internet routing, required by most Internet service providers (ISPs) to establish routing between one another. Very large private IP networks use BGP internally. An example is the joining of several large Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) networks when OSPF by itself does not scale to the size required. Another reason to use BGP is multihoming a network for better redundancy, either to multiple access points of a single ISP or to multiple ISPs.
