Troubleshooting routing protocols can be tough. This course will get you one step closer to mastering the art of troubleshooting EIGRP, OSPF, and redistribution between the two.

Troubleshooting isn’t just about solving problems, it’s about solving them quickly, and to do that you need a solid troubleshooting method you can apply to any networking problem. In this course, Cisco Enterprise Networks: Troubleshooting OSPF and EIGRP for IPv4, you're going to tackle 16 different troubleshooting tickets covering complex IPv4 routing problems involving OSPF, EIGRP, and redistribution. First, you'll discover how to troubleshoot EIGRP adjacencies and operations. Next, you'll explore OSPF adjacencies and operations. Finally, you'll wrap up the course by learning about troubleshooting redistribution. By the end of this course, you'll have the confidence and skills to be able to identify and solve many kinds of IPv4 routing or redistribution problems, varying in complexity and topology.
