Dynamic Routing Protocols Distance Vector Protocols Internal Gateway Protocol (IGP) Link State Protocols External Gateway Protocol (EGP) RIPv1 OSPF BGP RIPv2 EIGRP CCNA 200-201 By Anas Allosh IS-IS
Routing Protocols Distance Vector Protocols : (RIP / EIGRP / BGP) Calculate the best path to destination according to number of hops on the way i. A router learn about Networks from his neighbours only. ii. iii. iv. Routers only send to each other the best route to each network. Slower convergence when some link to a network fails. Loops may happen. v. Needs less processing from the router`s CPU Link State Protocols: (OSPF / IS-IS) Calculate the best path to destination according to Link state (speed / Throughput / Latency) i. Routers know about the whole Topology ii. iii. No loops can happen iv. Needs more processing from the router`s CPU Fast Convergence when some link to a network fails CCNA 200-201 By Anas Allosh
MPBN WAN Topology (Mobile Packet Backbone Network)
MPLS >> Multiprotocol Label Switching MPLS directs data from one network node to the next based on short path labels rather than long network addresses, avoiding complex lookups in a routing table. L2.5 Protocol MPLS VPN L3 usually the one used for Mobile Backhauling

Packet core network
GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) is a packet based communication service for mobile devices that allows data to be sent and received across a mobile telephone network. GPRS is a step towards 3G and is often referred to as 2.5G.
Network elements Packet Control Unit(PCU) Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN) Gateway GPRS Support Node(GGSN) Domain Name Servers Firewalls
Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN) The SGSN is the most important element of the GPRS network. The SGSN of the GPRS network is equivalent to the MSC of the GSM network. There must at least one SGSN in a GPRS network. There is a coverage area associated with a SGSN. Authentication of GPRS users Mobility management as the subscriber moves from one area to another, and possibly one SGSN to another Interaction with the NSS (that is, MSC/VLR, HLR, EIR) via the SS7 network in order to retrieve subscription information
Gateway GPRS Support Node (GGSN) The Gateway GPRS Support Node is the last port of call in the GPRS network before a connection between an ISP or corporate network s router occurs Allocates dynamic or static IP addresses to mobiles
Domain Name Servers These devices convert names to IP addresses, almadar using domain name serves to convert APN to IP addressee.
