Routing basics - IP and IPv6 packets, static routing 2. Interior routing protocols - EIGRP, OSPFv2,3, IS-IS... 3. Route control and interoperability - policy based routing and redistribution 4. Exterior routing protocols - BGP 5. Advanced routing - multicast, NAT Then you've just got your MPLS, QoS, switching and security to supplement the books. Jeremy Ciora also recommends studying this way in CBT nuggets. Get all your IGP's learnt, then move on to EGP's, and so on.
