CCNP Route Control: Set Metrics and Tags with a Route Map
Mark the partner extranet so HQ can tell it apart: give it its own metric, external type and tag as it enters OSPF.
Hands-on CCNA and CCNP practice labs — OSPF, VLANs, ACLs, routing, NAT and more, each a real Cisco Modeling Labs scenario you build and grade against the answer key.

Mark the partner extranet so HQ can tell it apart: give it its own metric, external type and tag as it enters OSPF.
The acquired site is leaking its vendor test bench into HQ. Let only its production subnets into OSPF.
Set one seed metric for every route entering EIGRP, and carry EIGRP routes into OSPF as type 1 externals.
HQ runs OSPF and the company it bought runs EIGRP. Join them at the boundary router so both sites reach each other.

HQ and the branch came back from a provider change unable to reach each other. Bring the overlay back to its design.
Put the internet circuit in its own routing table. The tunnel still rides it, but the global table never sees the internet.
The tunnel works, but static routes won't scale. Run OSPF across it, and size its packets so nothing gets dropped.
Two sites, and a provider that won't carry private routes. Build a tunnel between the sites and route each LAN through it.
Static routes don't scale. Give each tenant its own OSPF process, so its routes are learned instead of typed.
The tenant services moved to a core router. Carry both tenants over one cable and route each to its own services.
Two tenants share one edge router. Give each its own routing table, so both can use the same service address.

Building B came back from maintenance broken: staff PCs get no address and the kiosks can't reach their gateway.
What the community is working through right now.
A subscription unlocks every lab on this page for as long as it's active — the whole daily back catalogue, not just the labs published after you join, plus every series lab. Bundles and study paths aren't sold separately; the subscription is the only plan.
Free labs need no subscription at all: every lab you can build and grade without one is the sample, plus the opening lab of each series.
