Course Objectives
After completing the course, students should be able to:
- Explain the use and configuration of the routing protocol (OSPF and BGP) on the Network Services Gateway (NSG).
- Explain the purpose and operation of the NSG Underlay Border Router (NSG-UBR).
- Describe and apply the different domain linking options.
- Describe the benefits and configuration of Application Aware Routing (AAR).
- Describe approaches to using NSG as an IKE IPSec gateway.
- Explain how a virtual machine can be instantiated on the NSG to virtualize a network function.
