Preface

About This Guide

This guide describes routing protocols supported by the 7705 SAR and provides configuration and implementation examples.

This guide is organized into functional chapters and provides concepts and descriptions of the implementation flow, as well as Command Line Interface (CLI) syntax and command usage.

Note:

This manual generically covers Release 6.2 content and may contain some content that will be released in later maintenance loads. Please refer to the 7705 SAR OS 6.2.Rx Software Release Notes, part number 3HE09585000xTQZZA, for information on features supported in each load of the Release 6.2 software.

  2. Interior Gateway Protocols (IGP)
  3. Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) routing protocol
  4. Intermediate system to Intermediate system (IS-IS) routing protocol
  5. traffic engineering extensions to IGP
  6. Constrained Shortest Path First (CSPF)
  7. Border Gateway Protocols (BGP)
  8. Routing Information Protocol (RIP)
