IP Routing Volume Organization

IP Routing Overview

This document describes:

l      Introduction to IP routing and routing table

l      Routing protocol overview

Static Routing

A static route is manually configured by the administrator. The proper configuration and usage of static routes can improve network performance and ensure bandwidth for important network applications. This document describes:

l      Static route configuration

l      Detecting Reachability of the Static Route’s Nexthop

RIP

Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is a simple Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP), mainly used in small-sized networks.  This document describes:

l      RIP basic functions configuration

l      RIP advanced functions configuration

l      RIP network optimization configuration

OSPF

Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is an Interior Gateway Protocol based on the link state developed by IETF. This document describes:

l      Enabling OSPF

l      Configuring OSPF Areas

l      Configuring OSPF Network Types

l      Configuring OSPF Route Control

l      Configuring OSPF Network Optimization

l      Configuring OSPF Graceful Restart

IS-IS

Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (IS-IS) is a link state protocol, which uses the shortest path first (SPF) algorithm. This document describes:

l      Configuring IS-IS Basic Functions

l      Configuring IS-IS Routing Information Control

l      Tuning and Optimizing IS-IS Networks

l      Configuring IS-IS Authentication

l      Configuring System ID to Host Name Mappings

l      Configuring IS-IS GR

l      Enabling the Logging of Neighbor State Changes

l      Enabling IS-IS SNMP Trap

BGP

Border gateway protocol (BGP) is an inter-autonomous system (inter-AS) dynamic route discovery protocol. This document describes:

l      Configuring BGP Basic Functions

l      Controlling Route Generation

l      Controlling Route Distribution and Reception

l      Configuring BGP Route Attributes

l      Tuning and Optimizing BGP Networks

l      Configuring a Large Scale BGP Network

l      Configuring BGP GR

l      Enabling Trap

l      Enabling Logging of Peer State Changes

IPv6 Static Routing

Static routes are special routes that are manually configured by network administrators. Similar to IPv4 static routes, IPv6 static routes work well in simple IPv6 network environments. This document describes:

l      IPv6 static route configuration

IPv6 RIPng

RIP next generation (RIPng) is an extension of RIP-2 for IPv4. RIPng for IPv6 is IPv6 RIPng. This document describes:

l      Configuring RIPng Basic Functions

l      Configuring RIPng Route Control

l      Tuning and Optimizing the RIPng Network

IPv6 OSPFv3

OSPFv3 is OSPF version 3 for short, supporting IPv6 and compliant with RFC2740 (OSPF for IPv6). This document describes:

l      Enabling OSPFv3

l      Configuring OSPFv3 Area Parameters

l      Configuring OSPFv3 Network Types

l      Configuring OSPFv3 Routing Information Control

l      Tuning and Optimizing OSPFv3 Networks

IPv6 IS-IS

The IS-IS routing protocol supports multiple network protocols, including IPv6. IS-IS with IPv6 support is called IPv6 IS-IS dynamic routing protocol. This document describes:

l      Configuring IPv6 IS-IS Basic Functions

l      Configuring IPv6 IS-IS Routing Information Control

IPv6 BGP

To support multiple network layer protocols, IETF extended BGP-4 by introducing IPv6 BGP. This document describes:

l      Configuring IPv6 BGP Basic Functions

l      Controlling Route Distribution and Reception

l      Configuring IPv6 BGP Route Attributes

l      Tuning and Optimizing IPv6 BGP Networks

l      Configuring a Large Scale IPv6 BGP Network

Routing Policy

Routing policy is used on the router for route inspection, filtering, attributes modifying when routes are received, advertised, or redistributed. This document describes:

l      Defining Filters

l      Route policy configuration
