Validates the ability to install, configure, operate, and troubleshoot medium-size routers and switched networks, including implementation and verification of connections to remote sites in a WAN. CCNA curriculum includes essential mitigation of security threats, VLANs, Ethernet, access control lists (ACLs), wireless networking concepts and terminology, and performance-based skills. Candidates for the CCNA can qualify for the certification by passing an exam at a local exam centre.

With the Cisco CCNA 200-301 course, you can gain valuable skills in computing and earn over £30,000 starting salary. In addition, you will also receive a CCNA certificate to show your accomplishment.

Description

Overview of the course:

The Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA 200-301): Implementing and Administering Cisco Solutions, a globally recognized certification, provides networking skills and knowledge that will increase your understanding of routing and switching topics.

Cisco CCNA 200-301 Modules:

1. Networking

The Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA 200-301): Implementing and Administering Cisco Solutions, a globally recognized certification, provides networking skills and knowledge that will increase your understanding of routing and switching topics.

  • Introduction to TCP/IP Networking
  • Fundamentals of Ethernet LANs
  • Fundamentals of WANs
  • Fundamentals of IPv4 Addressing and Routing
  • Fundamentals of TPC/IP Transport and Applications

2. Ethernet LANs

The module focuses on skills like understanding how LANs work, configuring different switch features, verifying that those features work correctly, and finding the root cause of the problem when an element is not working correctly.

  • Using the Command-Line Interface
  • Analyzing Ethernet LAN Switching
  • Configuring Basic Switch
  • Configuring and Verifying Switch Interfaces

3. VLANs and STP

Virtual LANs (VLAN) have an impact on many parts of a switch’s logic. Frame forwarding happens per VLAN. MAC learning adds MAC table entries, and those entries include the associated VLAN. Even Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), a big focus in Chapter 1 of this course, often happens per VLAN. This chapter examines how many switch core features work in the context of VLANs.

  • Implementing Ethernet Virtual LANs
  • Spanning Tree Protocol Concepts
  • Spanning Tree Protocol Implementation
  • VLANs Configuration, Verification and Troubleshooting

4. IPv4 Addressing

An IP address is a numeric identifier assigned to each machine on an IP network. It designates the specific location of a device on the network. An IP address is a software address, not a hardware address - the latter is hard-coded on a network interface card (NIC) and used for finding hosts on a local network. IP addressing was designed to allow hosts on one network to communicate with a host on a different network regardless of the type of LANs the hosts are participating in.

  • Perspectives on IPv4 Subnetting
  • Analyzing Classful IPv4
  • Analyzing Subnet Masks
  • Analyzing Existing Subnets

5. IPv4 Routing

This section first lists the similarities between a switch and router CLI, and then introduces the configuration required to make the router start forwarding IP packets on its interfaces.

  • Operating Cisco Routers
  • Configuring IPv4 Addresses and Static Routes
  • IP Routing in the LAN
  • Troubleshooting IPv4 Routing

6. OSPF

Configure, verify and troubleshoot single-area and multiarea OSPFv2 for IPv4 and IPv6(excluding authentication, filtering, manual summarization, redistribution, stub, virtual-link, and LSAs).

  • Understanding OSPF Concepts
  • Understanding OSPF for IPv4
  • Understanding OSPF for IPv6

7. IP Version 6

This chapter looks at the big concepts, while the second section looks at the specifics of how to write and type IPv6 addresses.

  • Fundamentals of IP Version 6
  • IPv6 Addressing and Subnetting
  • Implementing IPv6 Addressing on Routers
  • IPv6 Routing Operation and Troubleshooting

8. IP Access Control Lists

This chapter explains the basics of the TCP/IP transport layer and the TCP/IP application layer. The functions of these higher layers play a big role in real TCP/IP networks, so it helps to have some basic understanding before moving into the rest of the book, where you go deeper into LANs and IP routing.

  • Introduction to TCP/IP Transport and Applications
  • Basic IPv4 Access Control Lists
  • Advanced IPv4 Access Control Lists

9. Security Services

In this chapter, you will learn about many aspects of an enterprise network that can be exploited, as well as some ways you can protect them.

  • Security Architectures
  • Security Network Devices

Who is this course for?

This course is suitable for the following individuals:

  1. Those pursuing the Cisco CCENT or Cisco CCNA Routing and Switching certification.
  2. Entry-level Network Engineers
  3. Network Administrators
  4. Network Support Technicians
  5. Help Desk Technicians

Requirements

While this course does not have any specific prerequisites, it is recommended that attendees have a familiarity with network concepts.

Career path

Holding a CCNA certificate can be advantageous when pursuing various networking job roles, including entry-level and higher-level positions such as network engineer, network specialist, or network administrator.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
