ICND2 - Interconnecting Cisco Networking Devices Part 2 v1.0
Course Description
This course focuses on providing the skills and knowledge necessary to install, operate, and troubleshoot a small to medium-size branch office Enterprise network, including configuring several Cisco Catalyst switches and Cisco routers, connecting to a WAN and implementing network security.
Duration
5 days, Instructor-led classroom training
Prerequisites
ICND2 is not an introductory course. ICND2 is designed for those learners who have a firm understanding of data networking fundamentals, have had exposure to IP addressing, and are familiar with the Cisco IOS command-line interface. To fully benefit from this course, it is recommended that learners have the following prerequisite skills and knowledge:
- Moderate hands-on experience with Cisco routers and switches.
- Knowledge and skills equivalent to those learned in the Interconnecting Cisco Networking
Devices Part 1 (ICND1) course which include the understanding of the following:
- Basic computer literacy
- Commonly used networking terms and topologies
- The basic functions of a network protocol
- Fundamental network device roles (for example, hub, bridge, router, and switch)
- Basic knowledge of PC hardware configurations
- Appropriate cabling used to interconnect Cisco networking devices
- Basic understanding of networking business drivers
- LAN and WAN topologies and technologies
- The Open System Interconnect (OSI) reference model
- Binary and hexadecimal numbering
- IP addressing and subnet masks
- TCP/IP protocols and basic applications (for example, FTP, Telnet and TFTP
- The host-to-host packet delivery process of TCP/IP
- The Cisco IOS command line interface and USER and PRIVILEGED EXEC modes
- Creation and management of an initial Cisco router and switch configuration
The Cisco router and switch hardware components and their boot-up processes
Associated Certifications
- Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA)
Who Should Attend
Course Objectives
After completing this course, the student will be able to:
- Review how to configure and troubleshoot a small network
- 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
