CCNA Bootcamp (ICND1 plus ICND2)

Duration:
5 Days of instructor-led classroom training (Approx. 10-12 hours each day.)

 

Overview:
CCNA Bootcamp combines both the Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices Part 1 (ICND1) course and the Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices Part 2 (ICND2) course into one five-day class.

 

ICND1 provides the fundamental knowledge prerequisite to successfully complete the ICND2 course.  Together, the ICND1 and ICND2 courses provide the preparation that Cisco recommends for the Cisco Certified Network Associate examination.  CCNA Bootcamp allows you to get that preparation in just one workweek.

 

Students will learn fundamental computer networking concepts and apply them as they configure a LAN/WAN network using Cisco routers and Catalyst switches.  Through lectures, discussions, demonstrations, exercises, and laboratory projects, students are given information sufficient to identify and recommend the best Cisco solutions for anywhere from small- to enterprise-sized businesses.  CCNA ACC also provides the installation, configuration, and troubleshooting information that technical support people require to install, manage, and configure Cisco products.

 

Associated Certifications:

  • Cisco Certified Entry Networking Technician (CCENT)
  • Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA)

Objectives:

After completing this course, students will be able to:

  • Describe how networks function, identifying major components, function of network components, and the Open System Interconnection (OSI) reference model
  • Using the host-to-host packet delivery process, describe issues related to increasing traffic on an Ethernet LAN and identify switched LAN technology solutions to Ethernet networking issues
  • Describe the reasons for extending the reach of a LAN and the methods that can be used with a focus on RF wireless access
  • Describe the reasons for connecting networks with routers and how routed networks transmit data through networks using TCP/IP
  • Describe the function of Wide Area Networks (WANs) and the major devices of WANs, and configure PPP encapsulation, static and dynamic routing, and PAT and RIP routing
  • Use the command-line interface to discover neighbors on the network and manage the router's startup and configuration
  • Expand a small-sized, switched LAN to a medium-sized LAN with multiple switches, supporting VLANs, trunking, and spanning tree
  • Describe routing concepts as they apply to a medium-sized network and discuss considerations when implementing routing on the network
  • Configure, verify, and troubleshoot OSPF
  • Configure, verify, and troubleshoot EIGRP
  • Determine how to apply ACLs based on network requirements, and configure, verify, and troubleshoot ACLs on a medium-sized network
  • Describe when to use and configure NAT or PAT on a medium-sized network and explain and configure IPv6 addressing on a Cisco router
  • Identify and implement the appropriate WAN technology based on network requirements

This course is intended for the following audience:

  • Network Administrator
  • Network Engineer
  • Network Manager
  • Systems Engineer

The secondary audience for this course is as follows:
