GNS3 or Packet Tracer for some CCNP Labs?
Hey guys Before you say, I need real equipment, I know I do, and I will try to get some, but I cannot be near the equipment all the time so I will probably have some spare at work So my question is, is it possible to do "some" labs with GNS3 or packet tracer? And if I can do some, which program has more features ? If GNS3…

Route Filtering with prefix list.
I am a little confused with this topic.

How Does MPLS result in better efficiency

Using Route-map with or without ACL/prefix-list
How are ACL/Prefix-lists/as path-lists used in combination with a route-map?

If you use a prefix list or ACL, you want to specifically…

Confusion Over Tables Again
In another thread I learnt that FIB + ADJ = CEF table.

I am very confused.

MPLS TE Explicit Null

How Does MPLS conserve the routing table
I understand that it has to look at the next hop address to see where to forward the next hop labels or something like that. I know that VRF is to separate the routing table for different customers.

Why is it necessary to configure BOTH OSPF and BGP
My WRONG understanding: Equipment configured with OSPF will communicate with one another. eBGP ensures communication of different routing protocols in other AS.
