| Course Abstract |
BCRAN is a qualifying exam
for the Cisco Certified Network Professional CCNP
certification. The BCRAN exam (642-821) will test
materials covered under the new Building Cisco
Remote Access Networks (BCRAN) CCNP course. The
exam will certify that the successful candidate
has important knowledge and skills necessary to
describe, configure, operate, and troubleshoot
WAN and remote access solutions. The exam covers
topics on General knowledge of WAN technologies,
Implementation and Operation, Planning and Design,
and Troubleshooting.

| Objectives |
After completing this course the student should
be able to:
- Understand the principles of classful and
classless routing and the difference between
link-state and distance vector protocol behavior
- Select and configure the appropriate services
for simplifying IP address management at branch
offices by proper address allocation and summarization
- Implement the appropriate technologies for
a scalable, routed network that uses link-state
protocols and redistribution
- Configure edge routers to properly interconnect
to a BGP network through either a single or
multihomed interconnection
- Control and optimize routing update information
by implementing filters, metrics, and policy-based
routing and changing administrative distance
- Examine case studies that show you how to
build a scalable internetwork including multiple
routing protocols
