Strong foundations in networking are essential. This course builds them from the ground up. Participants will develop core skills in IP addressing, network protocols, device configuration, security, and automation. Through practical labs and guided instruction, they will gain the knowledge to support enterprise networks and begin their journey toward network engineering roles.
Learning Outcomes:
Understand core networking concepts, protocols, and architectures
Configure and troubleshoot routers, switches, and wireless LAN controllers
Implement IPv4/IPv6, VLANs, routing protocols, and ACLs
Manage device security and perform basic automation tasks
Monitor network devices and troubleshoot connectivity issues
Key Topics:
TCP/IP stack, subnetting, and host-to-host communication
LAN, WAN, VLAN, OSPF, and EtherChannel configurations
NAT, DHCP, ACLs, and wireless LAN management
Cisco DNA Center, SD-Access, and SD-WAN fundamentals
Device hardening, logging, and monitoring
Exam Details
This course is designed to build participants’ understanding of key concepts and domains covered in the Cisco Certified Network Associate (200-301 CCNA) certification.
The 200-301 CCNA exam certifies participants’ knowledge and skills related to network fundamentals, network access, IP connectivity, IP services, security fundamentals, and automation and programmability. Upon passing the exam, participants earn the CCNA certification.
Participants may also earn 30 Continuing Education (CE) credits toward recertification through the Cisco Continuing Education Program.
Please note that the certification exam is not bundled with the course and must be purchased separately.
To maximise success, participants are strongly encouraged to complement the course with additional self-study, revision of course materials, and dedicated practice before attempting the exam.
