MikroTik: MikroTik Advanced BGP with LABS
Explore advanced BGP features on MikroTik RouterOS to effectively manipulate your traffic.
Description
BGP stands as the backbone routing protocol of the internet. If you work in an ISP or a medium to large-sized company, you will inevitably encounter the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). However, configuring this protocol is a formidable challenge due to its complexity and the multitude of topics it encompasses.
To address this, I've created this advanced-level course on BGP for MikroTik. This follows my earlier course, 'BGP on MikroTik with LABS - From Entry to Intermediate level,' which covers the fundamentals up to an intermediate level.
This advanced course delves deep into BGP, offering a wealth of practical labs.
The topics covered in this course include:
- Singlehomed BGP for stub networks
- Multihomed BGP for stub networks
- Multihomed BGP for non-stub networks (including Load balancing and Failover)
- BGP Remove AP private
- BGP Communities
- BGP route reflector
- BGP aggregate
- BGP Confederation
- and much more...
If you aim to master advanced-level BGP topics on MikroTik, I strongly recommend taking this course. I am confident that by the end of this course, you will gain a thorough understanding of how to configure Advanced BGP on MikroTik RouterOS.
