Course Description
In this course, you will gain the knowledge and skills needed to create an efficient and expandable enterprise network. You will focus on Layer 2 and multilayer switch functions including VLANs, trunks, inter-VLAN routing, port aggregation, spanning tree, first hop redundancy, as well as network security and high availability features.
Prerequisites
Taking ICND1 v2.0 and ICND2 v2.0 (or CCNAX v2.0) is highly recommended.
Know how to:
- Configure network fundamentals, including the ability to establish Internet, LAN, and WAN connectivity using both IPv4 and IPv6
- Operate and support a medium-sized LAN that has multiple switches, including VLANs, trunking, and spanning tree functionality
- Troubleshoot IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity issues
- Configure and troubleshoot EIGRP and OSPF, for both IPv4 and IPv6 o Configure devices for SNMP, Syslog, and NetFlow
- Manage network device security, Cisco device configurations, Cisco IOS images, and licenses
Who Should Attend
Network engineers and technicians, Support engineers, Systems engineers, Network analysts, Senior network administrators, Anyone involved in planning, implementing, verifying, and troubleshooting switch-based solutions in enterprise networks
Learning Objectives
- Components of the Cisco Enterprise Campus Architecture including the operation of Layer 2 and multilayer switches
- Switching Database Manager (SDM) templates and how they are used o Implementing device features including LLDP and PoE
- VLANs and trunks and how VTP works
- Configuring a device to be a DHCP server and relay agent, for both IPv4 and IPv6
