Prerequisites
Course Prerequisites
The knowledge and skills you are expected to have before attending this course are:
Familiarity with service provider network operation
Familiarity with Cisco IOS XR software configuration and operation
Ability to implement and troubleshoot routing protocol including OSPF, IS-IS, and Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) in a service provider network
What you will Learn
The Leveraging Cisco IOS XR VPN Services (XRVPNS) training teaches you how to implement and
troubleshoot Layer 2 and Layer 3 Virtual Private Network services in a service provider network
operating on Cisco IOS XR software. Cisco IOS XR is the foundational operating system of most service
provider networks and operates Cisco’s service provider portfolio of network devices. You will learn how
to implement a label switched network infrastructure for the enablement of VPN services using
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) or Segment Routing (SR).
You will also learn how to implement
and troubleshoot both IPv4 and IPv6 Layer 3 VPN services and Multicast VPN services using IOS XR.
In addition, you will learn how to implement Ethernet VPN (EVPN) services including EVPN Integrated
Routing and Bridging (EVPN IRB) and EVPN-SR data center fabric. Finally, you will learn how to
implement EVPN advanced features.
Course Objectives
After taking this course, you should be able to:
• Implement and configure MPLS and describe MPLS label propagation in
service provider networks
• Describe the main factors leading to the development and deployment of
segment routing, describe the various types of segments that are used in
segment routing, describe the Segment Routing Global Block (SRGB),
and configure and verify Intermediate System to Intermediate System (ISIS)
and Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) segment routing operation
• Implement and configure Segment Routing IPv6
• Describe the components and functionality of Layer 3 MPLS VPNs
implementation in Cisco IOS XR Software deployments
• Identify the routing protocol and LDP information necessary for Layer 3
MPLS VPN troubleshooting
• Discuss Multicast LDP (MLDP) implementation and troubleshooting
method for Layer 3 multicast MPLS VPN
• Implement MPLS VPN solutions for IPv6 environments
• Describe common issues and fixes for provider edge to provider edge
(PE-PE) and provider edge to customer edge (PE-CE) connectivity in an
IPv6 MPLS VPN environment
• Implement Layer 2 VPN operations in a service provider environment
• Explain how EVPN gets around the problems that regular Layer 2 VPNs
have, what the model for EVPN delivery is, and how to implement and
troubleshoot EVPN solutions
• Explain the advantages of EVPN IRB, how it is implemented, and how to
troubleshoot problems when building EVPN IRB solutions
• Demonstrate how to configure EVPN-SR data center fabric solutions
• Explain advanced EVPN features to support network engineers in
designing, implementing, and troubleshooting complex EVPN networks
