What You’ll Learn
Implementing Segment Routing on Cisco IOS XR (SEGRTE201) v2.0 provides a comprehensive understanding of Segment Routing (SR) technology. The course covers key SR concepts, configuration, and verification within Interior Gateway Protocols (IGPs), as well as the integration of Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) with Segment Routing. Participants will gain hands-on experience implementing topology-independent loop-free alternate (TI-LFA), segment routing traffic engineering (SR-TE) policies, and Segment Routing in Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) environments.
By completing this course, you will:
- Understand how to configure and verify Segment Routing within IGP environments
- Learn how to implement TI-LFA using Segment Routing for network resiliency
- Gain the ability to deploy Segment Routing in BGP and enable SR-based services
