BSCI and RIP

For BSCI exam, should I focus on (RIP and IGRP) or just (EIGRP, OSPF, IS-IS and BGP).
Because when I watch TS for Chris Bryant (BSCI) and reading (Routing TCP/IP Volume I) they still focus on (RIP)


BR,
Auos.

    You have to know RIP for things like redistribution but the main focus is over larger protocols.

    This is the blueprint from cisco

    Exam Topics

    The following information provides general guidelines for the content likely to be included on the exam. However, other related topics may also appear on any specific delivery of the exam. In order to better reflect the contents of the exam and for clarity purposes the guidelines below may change at any time without notice.
    Implement EIGRP operations

    * Explain the functions and operations of EIGRP (e.g., DUAL).
    * Configure EIGRP routing. (e.g., Stub Routing, authentication, etc.)
    * Verify or troubleshoot EIGRP routing configurations.

    Implement multiarea OSPF operations

    * Explain the functions and operations of multiarea OSPF.
    * Configure multiarea OSPF routing. (e.g., Stub, NSSA, authentication, etc.)
    * Verify or troubleshoot multiarea OSPF routing configurations.

    Describe integrated IS-IS

    * Describe the features and benefits of integrated IS-IS.
    * Configure and verify integrated IS-IS.

    Implement Cisco IOS routing features

    * Describe, configure or verify route redistribution between IP routing IGPs. (e.g.,route-maps, default routes, etc.)
    * Describe, configure or verify route filtering (i.e., distribute-lists and passive interfaces).
    * Describe and configure DHCP services (e.g., Server, Client, IP helper address, etc.).

    Implement BGP for enterprise ISP connectivity

    * Describe the functions and operations of BGP.
    * Configure or verify BGP operation in a non-transit AS (e.g., authentication).
    * Configure BGP path selection. (i.e., Local Preference, AS Path, Weight or MED attributes).

    Implement multicast forwarding

    * Describe IP Multicast (e.g., Layer-3 to Layer-2 mapping, IGMP, etc.).
    * Describe, configure, or verify IP multicast routing (i.e., PIM Sparse-Dense Mode).

    Implement IPv6

    * Describe IPv6 addressing operations.
    * Describe IPv6 interoperation with IPv4.
    * Describe, configure or verify OSPF routing with IPv6 addressing.

    I think “very senior” gets stuck in there because the last six yahoos that applied for the position couldn’t tell a packet from a Snickers bar.
