CISCO CCNA Exploration: Network Design

CISCO Certified Networking Associate (CCNA) is the qualification for anybody wanting to enter the computer network industry, make initial progress within the field, or needing a thorough knowledge of network technologies.

Students are guided through the multimedia course material which is available online to all registered students. The online material supplements practical exercises, instructor delivered content and prepares students for the regular online tests. Students will be expected to undertake a significant amount of study outside of the teaching sessions.

CCNA comprises four separate stages (Network Technologies 1-4). On successful completion of the four stages, students will be ready to attempt the Prometric test to achieve the CCNA qualification. The Pearson-Vue test is an external exam and attracts a separate fee.

Schedule

On completion of this stage, students will be able to:

• troubleshoot common network problems at layers 1, 2, 3, and 7 using a layered model approach
• interpret network diagrams
• perform and verify initial switch configuration tasks including remote access management
• configure, verify, and troubleshoot VLANs, interVLAN, routing, VTP, trunking on Cisco switches, and RSTP operation
• manage IOS configuration files
• identify the basic parameters to configure a wireless network and common implementation issues.
