Cisco Networking Academy Program CCNP 3: Multilayer Switching Lab Companion,

This is the second edition of the Multilayer
Switching Lab Companion for students of the CCNP
3 Multilayer Switching Cisco Networking Academy Program course.
The book is specifically designed to supplement the
CCNP 3 Version 3.0 online course to prepare
students for the current BCMSN exam. Since the
first edition of the book, Cisco has moved
toward an IOS-only Catalyst solution. All new Catalyst
devices now ship with built-in IOS functionality.
There is
also a dramatic set of additions to the
previous BCMSN material and the previous edition of
the Multilayer Switching Companion Guide: inter-VLAN routing using
routed ports and switch virtual interfaces (SVIs); new
Spanning Tree Protocols such as RSTP and MST;
redundancy with VRRP, GLBP, SRM, and SLB; Architecture
for Voice, Video, and Integrated Data (AVVID); the
range of Quality of Service technologies for campus
LANs; Catalyst switch security, including port security, VSPAN,
RSPAN, VLAN ACLs, and Private VLANs; and Metro
Optical networking with Transparent LAN Services. This portable
desk reference includes this wide array of new
technologies, providing both background theory and detailed IOS
configuration procedures.
