Description
MikroTik MTCINE is the hardest and the more complex course track in MikroTik. Actually it is the one and only advanced course between all MikroTik courses and it requires as a pre-requisite the MTCNA course as well as MTCRE course.
As being a complex course, I have decided to design this course in which I explain all topics of the MTCINE track. In this course, I will explain and do LABS about the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) and Multiple Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) which are both considered very advanced topics and implemented inside the networks of the Internet Service Provider (ISP).
So in this course, I will cover the following topics:
  • What is Autonomous System (AS)
  • What is Border Gateway Protocol (BGP)?
  • Path Vector algorithm
  • BGP Transport and packet types
  • iBGP and eBGP
  • Stub network scenarios and private AS removal
  • Non-stub scenarios
  • iBGP and eBGP multi-hop and loopback usage
  • Route distribution and routing filters
  • BGP best path selection algorithm
  • BGP prefix attributes and their usage
  • BGP route reflectors and confederations
  • MPLS basics
  • Static label mapping
  • Label Distribution Protocol (LDP)
  • Penultimate-hop-popping
  • MPLS traceroute differences
  • LDP based VPLS tunnels
  • Bridge split horizon
  • BGP based VPLS
  • BGP based layer3 tunnels (L3VPN)
  • What is traffic engineering and how it works
  • RSVP, static path, dynamic path (CSPF)
  • Bandwidth allocation and bandwidth limitation differences and settings

All my course will be based on LABS, so I advice you to run GNS3 with MikroTik CHR image to be able to follow this course because in some LABS you require to run 7 MikroTik Routers in 1 LAB.

Finally, if you want to master the topics of the MTCINE track, I advise you to enroll in my course and I will help you with your mission.


Who this course is for:
  • Engineers and students who wants to learn how to configure BGP routing protocol on MikroTik routers
  • Engineers who work in Internet Service Provider using MikroTik Routers and want to deploy MPLS
  • Students who want to be prepared for the MikroTik MTCINE exam
