Goals and Methods

This book addresses common misconceptions about CEF and packet switching across various platforms. The goal is to help end users understand CEF and know how to troubleshoot, regardless of whether a CEF or another problem is occurring in the network. Little information collectively addresses these concerns because CEF is proprietary. This book helps you understand CEF better by using the following methods:

  • Explaining CEF basics
  • Supplying troubleshooting scenarios that enhance your ability to recognize common mistakes
  • Providing best practices for configuration
