CSIS 791 CCNA 2 Routing and Switching Essentials

Course Description

This course is designed to provide classroom and laboratory experience to help prepare for certification as a Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA). Students learn how to configure a router and a switch for basic functionality. By the end of this course, students will be able to configure and troubleshoot routers and switches and resolve common issues with RIPv1, RIPng, single-area OSPF, virtual LANs, and inter-VLAN routing in both IPv4 and IPv6 networks.

By successfully completing this course you will earn 1 units of college credit.
