Before a core network can provide advanced services and traffic engineering, it must first establish basic transport connectivity between its nodes. In this course, you will learn how interior routing protocols are used to establish dynamic routing within the core, how MPLS technology is used to enhance packet transport across the underlay, and how Segment Routing is changing the way we think about transport paths. In each module you will watch a brief video describing the underlying technology and then walk through a hands-on lab to dive deeper into the relevant protocols and configurations that make underlay routing work.

In this comprehensive course, you'll learn how to implement Segment Routing Traffic Engineering (SR-TE) in your network, with and without Flex-Algo. This approach utilizes SR-MPLS to optimize network performance, reduce operational complexity, and enhance scalability. Through a combination of videos, articles, and hands-on lab exercises, you'll gain a deep understanding of the Segment Routing architecture and its key components. You'll also learn how to configure and troubleshoot Segment Routing policies and topologies using real-world scenarios and best practices. This course is ideal for network engineers, administrators, and architects seeking to expand their knowledge and skills in networking, particularly in the field of Segment Routing. Basic knowledge of networking technologies is recommended.
