What Is iBGP? Interior Border Gateway Protocol (iBGP) is a part of the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) family, which is used for exchanging routing information within a single Autonomous System (AS). An AS is essentially a large network or group of networks under a common administration, often belonging to an organization or an internet service provider. Here are… Read More »
What is IPv6 ACLs? There are similarities in the operation and configuration of IPv6 ACLs and its predecessor IPv4 ACLs. If you are familiar with the basic operation and configuration of the IPv4 access controls list, you will find IPv6 ACLs easy to understand and configure too, the only difference is just the IPv6 addressing. An IPv6 Access… Read More »
What is IPv6? IPv6 is the next generation of IP addressing or Internet Protocol. The previous version of IP addressing (IPv4) is depleted or near depletion. IPv6 was created by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), a standards body, as a replacement to IPv4 in 1998. However, IPv6 is equipped with so much improved features and limitless opportunities more than… Read More »
What are IPv6 Routing Protocols? IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) routing protocols are next generation protocols that are essentially, components in the functioning of the IPv6 network layer.If you must know; routing protocols facilitate the exchange of routing information between routers, enabling them to make informed decisions about the best paths to reach various destinations in an IPv6… Read More »
What Is EIGRP? EIGRP stands for Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol. It is a Cisco proprietary advanced distance vector routing protocol used for routing decisions within a computer network. EIGRP is designed to efficiently handle large and complex enterprise networks while providing fast convergence and minimal network traffic. Key Features of EIGRP: Advanced Distance Vector Protocol: EIGRP is… Read More »
