Cisco Service Provider

After completing this course the student should be able to:

• Compare and contrast the various broadband aggregation architectures available with Cisco routers
• Explain how RBE and RFC 1483 routing work, describe their typical architectures and benefits, and configure them on Cisco routers
• Explain how PPPoA and PPPoE work, along with descriptions of their typical architecture and benefits, and configure them on Cisco routers
• Explain and configure various methods for optimizing subscriber connections including PVC range, auto detect PPPoX encapsulation, VC class, ATM PVC autoprovisioning, and BBA groups
• Explain AAA services available on Cisco routers and RADIUS servers and configure AAA services on Cisco routers
• Explain how L2TP works, describe its typical architecture and benefits, and configure it on Cisco routers
• Describe the Cisco 10000 Series router and explain the features and functions of system-wide hardware and software components
• Identify and describe system modules and services on the Cisco 10000 Series router that are utilized in broadband aggregation deployment scenarios

This course is intended for customer technicians and system integrators who need to implement various broadband aggregation technologies on Cisco routers. This course also enables Cisco System Engineers (SEs) to present and demonstrate various broadband aggregation technologies on Cisco routers for customers. Students learn about RBE, PPPoA, PPPoE, and L2TP, and learn how to configure and verify operation of these technologies on Cisco routers. This course also explains the Cisco 10000 Series router hardware architecture and software features.

The course is instructor-led and includes hands-on lab exercises. Lecture topics are reinforced with supporting student exercises.
