This course is designed to provide an understanding of routing table components and the decision-making processes of routers. You will begin by learning to interpret the components of a typical routing table, including the routing protocol code, prefix, network mask, next hop, administrative distance, metric, and gateway of last resort. The course will then guide you through the process that a router undergoes to make forwarding decisions on the network, focusing on the use of the longest prefix match, administrative distance, and routing protocol metric. Additionally, you will memorize key parameters essential for analyzing Cisco routing tables. This course is part of the CCNA 200-301 (v1.1) series designed to prepare students for the Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) exam.
