This course explains IP addressing and extending IP addresses. The Internet Protocol (IP) is the primary protocol used to encapsulate data in the Internet suite. This course focuses on some of the solutions and mechanisms the Cisco professional should know to help decrease the routing table size as well as create a more hierarchical addressing scheme.
