Cisco Networking Academy's Introduction to Routing Dynamically

  • Sample Chapter is provided courtesy of Cisco Press.
  • Date: Mar 24, 2014.

Chapter Description

This chapter explains multiple routing protocols (particularly dynamic routing protocols) and describes their relative strengths and weaknesses. It also shows how to read a routing table easily and interpret the IPv6 routing information listed within it.
