After giving a two-days training to a customer on multicast technology, I take the opportunity to have my lab and the configurations ready to share with you a suite of five different multicast configurations examples. And, how to make some tests and troubleshooting. These examples are based on the labs I used to practice the CCIE R&S practical exam. This lab is about Any-Source Multicast with anycast RP.

Recently, my license for Cisco VIRL expired, and I wanted to test alternatives to have a lab on my laptop. I got used to installing the client and the server parts of VIRL on my laptop, so I don’t have to worry about connectivity when I want to do a lab or a demo to a colleague or a customer. With the exceptional opportunities of the different cloud solutions, actually, this is probably not the best solution, but it suits me well for a small lab, and I’d like to continue to have this possibility.
Recently, I was involved into a project where we had to deploy a Cisco Meraki vMX100 into Microsoft Azure cloud and build site-to-site and clients VPNs.
The setup process on Azure is relatively simple, however, I lost quite a lot of time on basic issues because the documentation provided by Cisco is not 100% accurate. Here are some tips and tricks to save you time.
The IPv4 full BGP table size is around 725000 prefixes now. This may cause problems for companies that do not have the resources to update or upgrade their edge routers.
But, except for Internet transit providers, who really need to get the full IPv4 BGP table today? And what are the alternatives?
Let’s see that in detail with some use cases.
Here is my journey to start learning network programmability and automation, and how I got the Cisco network programmability specialist certification (300-550 exam). In this post, I give you the links to all the resources that I used to study.
On Cisco routers, by default the BGP protocol will not do load-sharing – and even less unequal cost load-sharing – across multiple links, for traffic to the same eBGP destination with different AS-path. Let’s see how we can change this.
