Overview Advanced Routing and Switching for Field Engineers (ARSFE) v1.0 is a 5 day course that teaches learners how to prepare for implementing the design solution as part of a System Engineer and Field Engineer team effort. It will prepare the learner to install and configure advanced routing and switching solutions, including Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS), Quality of Service (QoS), High Availability (HA), and IP version 6 (IPv6). The course will also prepare the learner to monitor and troubleshoot the advanced solutions implementation.
Pre-Requisites
A valid Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) certification
Level of knowledge equivalent to the Implementing Cisco Quality of Service v2.1 (QoS) course
