Course overview

In this course, you will learn what VRF and VRF-Lite are and how to configure them.

The configuration on different devices is almost the same with some changes in syntax.

So, understanding the concepts will help you determine whether you need to implement VRF(s) and which VRFs to import from and export to.

Throughout the course, you are presented with scenarios and discussions on how to perform the tasks efficiently and effectively.

The topology files and configurations are attached to the course in case you would like to study them and change them based on your needs.

  • Those who would like to Learn VRF in depth
