Course Description: This is an advanced course intended for networking professionals and
students have completed CCNA studies or already possess
their CCNA certification. This course introduces
students to scaling IP addresses using VLSM, NAT, and
PAT. It focuses on advanced concepts and implementation
of RIPv2, EIGRP, ISIS, multi-area OSPF, and BGP.
Additional topics include route filtering, route
redistribution and policy routing. This course is the
first semester of CCNP studies through the Cisco
Networking Academy Program. Prereq. - CISC 271 or CISC
260 and 266, or a current and valid CCNA certification.
Course Objectives
The CCNP certification
indicates knowledge of networking for the small
office/home office (SOHO) and enterprise markets. The
certification also indicates the individual has the
ability to work in businesses or organizations with
networks that have between 100 and 500 nodes. A CCNP
certified individual can perform the following tasks:
• Implement appropriate
technologies to build a scalable routed network
• Build campus networks
using multilayer switching technologies
• Improve traffic flow,
reliability, redundancy, and performance for campus
LANs, routed and switched WANs, and remote access
networks
• Create and deploy a
global intranet
• Troubleshoot an
environment that uses Cisco routers and switches for
multiprotocol client hosts and services
• Perform entry-level
tasks in the planning, design, installation, operation,
and troubleshooting of Ethernet and TCP/IP networks
The CCNP 1 course is an
important step toward achieving CCNP certification.
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to
perform tasks related to the following:
·
Internetwork scalability
