IP design course description
A fast paced, theory and case study only course concentrating on IP issues essential for network
designers. Not an introductory course. A large part of the course will be devoted to the issues of
addressing, subnetting and supernetting.
Who will benefit?
The course is primarily aimed at pre sales support personnel but should be beneficial for anyone working with IP.
IP design course prerequisites
Basic TCP/IP knowledge.
IP design course objectives
By the end of the course delegates will be able to:
- Design IP networks and respond to IP based tenders.
- Calculate subnet and supernet numbers in seconds (with only pen and paper).
- Recognise the importance of areas in OSPF design.
- Describe the role of BGP in Internet routing.
- Secure IP networks.
- Recognise the implications of

IP design
course contents
Introduction and quick review of basics.
Golden rules of design, PC issues VRRP.
IP addressing
Format of addresses, registering (or not), choosing addresses,
private addresses. The three rules of IP addressing. Dynamic
vs static addressing, DHCP.
Subnetting
When to subnet, subnet masks, working with subnetting from
first principles, case study, working out subnet numbers
in seconds. VLSMs.
Routing
Reasons for routing, routing tables, static routes.
Routing protocols
IGPs, EGPs, RIP, RIPv2, OSPF. Areas. IGRP and EIGRP. Which
routing protocol to use.
Route aggregation
When and where to aggregate, Benefits, calculating in seconds.
Redistribution
Multiple routing protocols, issues.
Internet routing
BGPv4, Peering, Internet exchanges, CIDR and supernetting.
PPP and other lower layers
ISDN, PPP, PAP, CHAP, IPCP, MPPP, Radius. Frame Relay considerations.
IP security considerations
Firewalls, Proxy servers, NAT, IPSEC, VPNs, PPTP, L2F.
Performance considerations
Traffic patterns, baselining, implications of services such
as email, HTTP and messaging.
Trends and Futures
Multicasting, IGMP, PIM dense mode, PIM sparse mode, RSVP,
VoIP.
IPv6
Addressing, "Plug and play", security, flows, migration.
