BGP Video Mentor

BGP Video Mentor is a DVD video product that contains a series of short instructional videos that demonstrate how to accomplish various BGP configuration and troubleshooting tasks.

The DVD contains 21 individual videos, totaling more than five hours of instruction.

The videos consist of audio instruction, animations, and router video screencasts.

Each video lab presents detailed objectives, lab diagrams, and video captures.

Audio instruction throughout offers detailed explanations, tips, and shortcuts.

Video screencasts of the router CLI sessions demonstrate command entry, configuration techniques, and device response. BGP Video Mentor is intended for anyone wishing to understand the basics of BGP from an operational viewpoint.

The product can be used on its own, or as a supplement for the second edition of Routing TCP/IP Volume II, which focuses heavily on BGP.

Unlike the book, however, which is oriented to a deep understanding of the BGP protocol, the BGP Video Mentor is intended to provide a focus on configuration and troubleshooting techniques.
