Interconnecting Cisco Networking Devices Part 1 Course Overview

This Cisco Networking Course teaches how to set up and maintain a compact switched and routed network. In this course, a 'small network' refers to a network configuration consisting of 1 to 20 hosts linked through a single switch, which operates on a single VLAN, specifically VLAN1. This switch is further connected to a router, thereby establishing a routed connection facilitated through the Routing Information Protocol (RIP) and a default to simulated environments such as the internet and a corporate office setting.

The instructional journey of this course initiates with a foundational overview of network systems. It sequentially progresses to unravel the dynamics of host-to-host communications leveraging TCP/IP protocols. Following this, the curriculum delves into the incorporation of Layer 2 and Layer 3 devices, namely switches and routers, into the network, enhancing the network’s functionality and complexity.

Upon the successful culmination of this course, delegates will hold the proficiency to articulate the operational mechanics of network systems, pinpoint and delineate the core components, and comprehend the functionalities they offer within a network setup. Moreover, our world-class experienced trainers will help delegates gain a deep understanding of the OSI reference model.

Additionally, delegates will cultivate the ability to navigate the host-to-host packet delivery processes, identify and solve problems arising from escalated traffic on an Ethernet LAN, and devise solutions through switched LAN technology to counter Ethernet networking dilemmas, among other advanced expertise that will be fostered throughout the course. This foundational Cisco Networking Certification Course thus offers a comprehensive insight into network operations, fostering a rich understanding and facilitating adeptness in handling various network scenarios.
