Network • What is routing? • How data is forwarded between subnets • Network Layer or Layer 3 in the OSI Model • Provides end-to-end reachability Data Link Introduction to Dynamic Routing Physical
How are routing decisions made? • Forwarded based on the destination IP address • Router builds/maintains a routing table • Current view of the network • Populated either dynamically or manually Introduction to Dynamic Routing router#show ip route Codes: C - connected, S - static, R - RIP, M - mobile, B - BGP D - EIGRP, EX - EIGRP external, O - OSPF, IA - OSPF inter area N1 - OSPF NSSA external type 1, N2 - OSPF NSSA external type 2 E1 - OSPF external type 1, E2 - OSPF external type 2, E - EGP i - IS-IS, su - IS-IS summary, L1 - IS-IS level-1, L2 - IS-IS level-2 ia - IS-IS inter area, * - candidate default, U - per-user static route o - ODR, P - periodic downloaded static route Gateway of last resort is 192.5.40.54 to network 0.0.0.0 69.0.0.0/19 is subnetted, 1 subnets O E2 69.51.160.0 [110/1] via 192.5.40.54, 6d21h, Port-channel61 O E2 199.233.104.0/24 [110/1] via 192.5.40.54, 3w4d, Port-channel61 192.5.40.0/24 is variably subnetted, 19 subnets, 4 masks D 192.5.40.238/32 [90/131328] via 192.31.0.13, 2d16h, Vlan4094 [90/131328] via 192.31.0.113, 2d16h, Vlan4084 O IA 192.5.40.225/32 [110/2] via 192.5.40.54, 3w4d, Port-channel61 O IA 192.5.40.227/32 [110/4] via 192.5.40.54, 3w4d, Port-channel61 C 192.5.40.240/28 is directly connected, Vlan898 D 192.5.40.168/29 [90/3072] via 192.31.0.113, 7w0d, Vlan4084 [90/3072] via 192.31.0.13, 7w0d, Vlan4094 Snip……
Agenda Introduction to Dynamic Routing Choosing the Right Protocol Configuring Dynamic Routing How the ITaP Production Data Network uses dynamic routing
Interior Routing Protocols • Used within an autonomous system • Used within an area of administrative control • Exterior Routing Protocols • Used between autonomous systems • Used to peer with networks in which you have no administrative control Choosing the Right Protocol
Interior Routing Protocols • Static • RIP • OSPF • EIGRP • ISIS • Exterior Routing Protocols • BGP • NOTE: This is not an exhaustive list of protocols available but merely a list of those commonly used. Choosing the Right Protocol
Static Routing • May be suitable on small networks • Administration intensive as changes have to be made on each router • Commonly used for default routing • 0.0.0.0/0 Next Hop Router Choosing the Right Protocol
Dynamic Routing Protocol Types • Distance Vector • Routing Information Protocol(RIP) • Interior Gateway Routing Protocol(IGRP) • Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol(EIGRP) • Link State • Open Shortest Path First(OSPF) • Intermediate System to Intermediate System(ISIS) • Path Vector • Border Gateway Protocol(BGP) Choosing the Right Protocol
Routing Information Protocol(RIP) • RFC 1058(RIPv1), 1988 • Classful, no support for VLSM • No support for authentication • RFC 2453(RIPv2), 1998 • Classless, support for CIDR • Support for authentication • Uses hop count as routing metric • Slow to converge • Not very scalable • Limited to 15 hops Choosing the Right Protocol
Interior Gateway Routing Protocol(IGRP) • Invented by Cisco to overcome limitations of RIP • Allows for hop count up to 255 • Allows for multiple route metrics • Bandwidth • Delay • Load • MTU • Reliability • Classful, no support for VLSM Choosing the Right Protocol
Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol(EIGRP) • Replaced IGRP • Maintains a Topology table • Successors, feasible successors • Allows for multiple route metrics • Classless, support for CIDR • Very fast to converge • Maintains neighbor relationships • Diffusing Update Algorithm(DUAL) • Not as CPU intensive as OSPF Choosing the Right Protocol
Open Shortest Path First(OSPF) • RFC 2328(OSPFv2), 1998 • Maintains neighbor relationships • Concept of Areas • Different areas can be used to control flooding of routing information • Classless, supports VLSM • Fast to converge • CPU Intensive Dijkstra Algorithm • Designing can be complicated Choosing the Right Protocol
Intermediate System to Intermediate System(ISIS) • RFC 1142, 1990 • Dijkstra Algorithm • Mainly used by large service providers • Does not use IP to carry routing information • Uses ISO addresses • Level Concept • Level 1 or Intra Area • Level 2 or Inter Area • Level 1/2 or Both • Classless, supports VLSM Choosing the Right Protocol
Border Gateway Protocol(BGP) • RFC 4271(BGPv4), 2006 • Peers manually defined • Used typically for multi-homing to ISP(s) • Very scalable • Makes decisions based upon AS Path • Lots of policy options • Very granular control Choosing the Right Protocol

How to configure dynamic routing? • Choose a protocol that meets your needs • Each vendor has specific commands but should have a configuration guide available to assist • Plan well to ensure a functional network • Create a diagram • Consider high availability technologies • HSRP • VRRP Configuring Dynamic Routing
Best Practices • Only enable a routing protocol for interfaces you intend on using • If compromised can cause a lot of problems • Enable authentication(if available) • Use authentication to ensure that the remote routers are valid peers Configuring Dynamic Routing
Best Practices Cont… • Control Network Advertisements • Only allow networks to be advertised that should be • Private Address Space • Use only within your organization • Private AS Numbers • Strip before sending to ISP Configuring Dynamic Routing
