Cisco CCNP Certification Training
Building Scalable Cisco Networks 1.0 (BSCN)
Course Code:
TRN-SNA-IP
Offering Duration: Instructor-led 5 days
Course Content
Building Scalable Cisco Networks (BSCN) version 1.0 replaces the Advanced Cisco Router
Configuration (ACRC) version 11.3 course. As such, BSCN addresses those tasks that network
managers and administrators need to perform when managing access and controlling overhead
traffic in growing, routed, networks once basic connectivity has been established. BSCN
discusses router capabilities used to control traffic over LANs and WANs, as well as
connecting corporate networks to an Internet Service Provider (ISP).
Course Objective
Upon completion of this training course, the student will be able to meet the
following overall objectives:
- Given a network specification that calls for simplifying IP address management at branch
offices by centralizing addresses, select and configure the appropriate services.
- Given a network specification calling for a scalable routed network that includes link
state protocols and redistribution, implement the appropriate technologies.
- Given a network specification calling for either a single or a multi-homed
interconnection into an ISP's BGP network, configure the edge routers to properly
interconnect into the BGP cloud.
- Given a network specification calling for controlling access to networks or devices, or
for minimizing overhead traffic, select and configure the appropriate access list
features.
- Given various network specifications calling for multiple routed and routing protocols,
implement case studies that reflect a scalable internetwork.
Who Should Attend
The BSCN course is targeted toward enterprise network engineers (including SEs,
customers, and resellers) who are responsible for network administration and
implementation. The targeted audience performs one or more of the following
tasks:
- Install and configure network devices
- Design and implement large enterprise networks
- Add services/applications to an existing network, and determine what router
configurations are required to support the new services/applications
- Improve traffic flow, reliability, redundancy, and performance through the network
Prerequisites
The Building Scalable Cisco Networks course focuses on introducing routing techniques
and technologies for scaling a network. To fully benefit from BSCN, students must possess
certain prerequisite skills using Cisco equipment. These skills follow:
- Working knowledge of the OSI reference model and the hierarchical model
- Understanding internetworking fundamentals
- Operating and configuring a Cisco IOS device
- Working knowledge of the TCP/IP stack and how to configure a routed protocol such as IP
- Understanding distance vector routing protocol operation and configuring RIP and IGRP
- Determining when to use static and default routes and enabling them on a Cisco router
- Displaying and interpreting a Cisco router routing table
- Enabling a WAN serial connection
- Configuring Frame Relay PVCs on interfaces and subinterfaces
- Configuring an IP standard and extended access list
- Verifying router configurations with available tools like show and debug commands
These skills can be gained from successfully completing other Cisco educational offerings,
as follows:
Internetworking Technologies Multimedia (ITM)
and one of the following combinations:
Introduction to Cisco Router Configuration (ICRC) and Cisco LAN Switch Configuration
(CLSC); or
Cisco Router and LAN Switches (CRLS); or
Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices (ICND)
