CS 410/510, Internet Routing

This class will study modern packet-based routing protocols as used in
the Internet including interior routing protocols like RIPv1, RIPv2,
OSPF, and exterior routing protocols like BGP, in both interior and
exterior forms.  The class will also briefly study routing control
theory including link-state, and vector-distance theory.  In addition,
as time permits, topics may include multicast routing, Mobile-IP, IPv6,
and quality of service issues.  The primary focus is on Internet
routing, but it is possible that in the latter half of the course,
students may choose to give a approved presentation on other layer 2 or
layer 3 areas of interest including new layer 2 protocols, Voice over
IP, MPLS, EIGRP, QOS networking issues in switched or packet networks,
tag switching, circuit switch routing (as found in telco networks),
cellular mobile radio, and/or network design and configuration.
