  1. Routing Working at a Small-to-Medium Business or ISP – Chapter 6

  2. Objectives • Describe the purpose and function of dynamic routing and the protocols used to implement it. • Configure RIPv2 dynamic routing using the Cisco IOS. • Describe the use of exterior routing protocols across the Internet. • Enable BGP on a customer site router.

  3. Enabling Routing Protocols • Routing tables contain locally connected networks • Routers use routing tables to determine routes • Routes can be statically assigned or dynamically learned through routing protocols

  4. Enabling Routing Protocols • Components of a route: destination value, subnet mask, gateway, route cost or metric

  5. Enabling Routing Protocols • Directly connected routes • Static routes • Dynamically updated routes • Default route

  6. Enabling Routing Protocols • Static routes are manually configured • Static routes are suitable for small networks with few changes

  7. Enabling Routing Protocols Characteristics of distance vector protocols: • Routers share copies of routing tables • Distance metric can be based on hops, cost, bandwidth, speed, delay or reliability • Vector is the address of the next hop along a route

  8. Enabling Routing Protocols Routing Information Protocol (RIP): • RFC 1058 • Distance vector using hop count metric • Updates every 30 seconds

  9. Enabling Routing Protocols Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol: (EIGRP) • Enhanced distance vector protocol • Uses a variety of metrics • Cisco-proprietary

  10. Enabling Routing Protocols Characteristics of link-state protocols: • Full database of distant routers and interconnections • Link-state advertisements • Topological database • SPF algorithm

  11. Enabling Routing Protocols Open Shortest Path First (OSPF): • Non-proprietary • Link-state • RFC 2328 • Advanced protocol

  12. Enabling Routing Protocols Criteria for choosing routing protocols: • Ease of management • Ease of configuration • Efficiency

  13. Enabling Routing Protocols • Describe and implement RIP routing on an integrated router

  14. Exterior Routing Protocols • The Internet is divided into autonomous systems • AS: a set of networks controlled by a single administration using the same internal routing policy • Each ISP is an AS

  15. Exterior Routing Protocols • Interior gateway protocols (IGPs) exchange routing information within an AS or individual organization • Exterior gateway protocols (EGPs) exchange routing information between autonomous systems

  16. Exterior Routing Protocols • Each AS uses dedicated border gateway routers to route packets across the Internet

  17. Exterior Routing Protocols • ISPs use exterior routing protocols to forward or control local and/or transit traffic • Exterior protocols enforce policies and support reliability

  18. Exterior Routing Protocols Configuring Border Gateway Protocol (BGP): • Configure the AS number • Identify ISP neighbor router

  19. Summary • All routers make routing decisions by looking up information stored in their routing tables. • Routes can be statically assigned by an administrator, or dynamically learned by the router via a routing protocol. • Routing protocols use either distance-vector or link-state algorithms to calculate the best routes to each destination. • Criteria such as ease of management, ease of configuration, and efficiency must be considered when selecting a routing protocol for use within an organization. • Organizations are also called Autonomous Systems. • Between Autonomous Systems, Exterior Gateway routing protocols control the flow of traffic. • ISPs handle Internet traffic through the use of routing policies.
