CCNP Service Provider lab 23 of 23

Capstone: build a small service provider

Build a provider from bare interfaces: IS-IS with SR and TI-LFA, a route reflector, two L3VPN customers, and an Internet service with a protected upstream, then pass eight acceptance tests.

Run this lab

It needs Standard: its 8 nodes are set to 8 vCPU and 12,288 MB in total.

In your workspace: Shared, then CCNP Service Provider guided labs, then 23 - Capstone - build a small service provider

Run it on Standard from £5 a day

The free demo can’t run it: it has 6 vCPU and 8 GB, and this lab’s nodes need 8 vCPU and 12,288 MB together. Every lab plan includes every guided lab.

The scenario

Fellgate Carrier is launching in a new city, and this is the whole network. Four IOS XR routers are racked, cabled and addressed, and nothing else is configured. You have the design and a day to build it. Nobody will give you a command list: it's your turn. Use earlier labs if you need to.

The customers' routers and the upstream are already configured and waiting for you.

What you’ll practise

  • Plan and build an IS-IS and SR-MPLS core
  • Protect it with TI-LFA
  • Run VPNv4 through a route reflector
  • Deliver two L3VPN customers
  • Deliver Internet access from a VRF
  • Filter and protect an upstream session

The tasks

  • Design requirements
  • Build order
  • Acceptance tests

The Lab Tasks pane has the scenario, these tasks, the checks to run, hints and the full solution.

Topology and devices

The network as it opens in EVE-NG, drawn from the lab’s own canvas, and the image each node runs.

How to open this lab

  1. Sign in to your workspace at lab.cloudlabbox.com.

  2. In File Manager, open Shared, then the folder CCNP Service Provider guided labs.

  3. Open 23 - Capstone - build a small service provider and start its nodes, then open Lab Tasks for the scenario and the steps.

The lab is read-only. You can start the nodes and configure the devices, but changes to the topology can’t be saved. To change it, rebuild it in your own folder.
