CTR 8540 Configuring IP/MPLS features

Microwave Routers

Overview

The Aviat Networks CONFIGURING CTR 8540 IP/MPLS/LAYER 3 features course is recommended for design, field and operations personnel, who design, deploy, configure and operate IP networking equipment involving advanced routing protocols and IP/MPLS. This three (3) day instructor-led course is focused on configuration of IP/MPLS/Layer 3 features on the CTR 8540 platform. Topics include configuration and use of LDP, L2VPN, L3VPN, QoS, Traffic Engineering (TE) and OAM features.

The course content is enriched with hands-on labs (nearly 50% of the course duration) and case studies that offer students scenarios they will face in real deployments in their networks.Courses are conducted by AVIAT expert trainers in a mentoring environment backed by their deep technology expertise and experience in implementation of microwave wireless and IP/MPLS networks.

The course is conducted at Aviat Training locations or can be arranged at customer sites.

Upon successfully completing this course, participants will be able to:

  • Understand core routing concepts involving advanced protocols such as MPLS LDP and RSVP-TE Protocol
  • Configuration of MPLS, LDP, and RSVP-TE features.
  • Configuration of MPLS based applications – L2VPNs, L3VPNs, on the CTR platform.
  • Participants MUST complete Aviat CTR 8540 IP/LAYER 3 features course that provides knowledge of the setup, trouble shooting and operation of CTR platforms Routing protocols such as OSPF/ISIS and BGP.
  • Each student must bring laptop PC and have administrator rights on the PC with the following parameters.
    • Pentium 4 or later w/ 1GB of RAM and 250 Mb of free hard drive space.
    • Microsoft Windows 7, 8, or 10 and Google chrome as web browser.
    • USB Port / LAN Port / and DB9 serial port connexion or adapter
