SWITCH - Implementing Cisco IP Switched Networks v1.0 On-Site Training
SWITCH - Implementing Cisco IP Switched Networks v1.0
Course Description/Agenda
This course includes extensive hands-on labs to help you learn to plan, configure,
and verify the implementation of complex enterprise switching solutions for
campus environments using the Cisco Enterprise Campus Architecture. In order to
gain a firm understanding of how to manage switches in an enterprise campus
environment, you'll cover:
- VLANs and WLANs
- Spanning tree
- Inter-VLAN routing
- Security features
Bonus Lab Credits Included
Only at Global Knowledge, you'll receive extra SWITCH lab credits. Redeem
them within 30 days to review a topic after class, refine your skills, or get in
extra practice-whatever lab activities complete your training.
What You'll Learn
- Analyze campus network designs
- Implement VLANs in a network campus
- Implement spanning tree
- Implement inter-VLAN routing in a campus network
- Implement high-availability technologies and techniques using multilayer
switches in a campus environment
- Implement security features in a switched network
- Integrate WLANs into a campus network
- Accommodate voice and video in campus networks
Who Should Attend
- Network engineers with at least one year of professional work experience
who are ready to advance their skills and work independently on complex
network solutions
- Network engineers, technical support personnel, or help desk technicians who will need to correctly implement and/or support switch-based solutions
Course Prerequisites
OR
- Familiarity with internetworking technologies; the ability to perform
basic router configuration; experience installing, operating, and
maintaining routers and switches in an enterprise environment
- Knowledge of IP, including the ability to perform IP subnetting on
