Overview

7+ Hours of Video Instruction

Intermediate System to Intermediate System (IS-IS) Routing Protocol LiveLesson provides networking engineers with a full and complete knowledge of the operation and deployment of IS-IS in a variety of network environments.

In this video training, networking expert Russ White provides you with a detailed introduction to the IS-IS routing protocol. IS-IS is a widely deployed protocol used to provide routing information for IPv4 and IPv6 networks as well as MPLS label switching and many advanced functions. This video provides you with everything you need to know to get up and running with IS-IS, from the underlying history to configuration and troubleshooting a wide variety of features.

About the Instructor

Russ White began his network engineering career installing terminal emulation cards and inverse multiplexers in the United States Air Force. While attending Capella University where he earned an MSIT in Network Architecture, he moved from the Cisco Technical Assistance Center to Global Escalation, into software engineering, to Sales as a Distinguished Architect, to Verisign Labs, and then to Ericsson as a Principal Engineer. Russ also holds a Master of Arts from Shepherds Theological Seminary and is currently a Ph.D. student at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. He holds CCIE #2637, CCDE 2007:001, and the CCAr. Russ lives in Oak Island, N.C. with his wife and two children.
