Cisco CCNA Routing & Switching Online for graduates by Networxx

CCNA1: Introduction to Networks

This course introduces the architecture, structure, functions, components, and models of the Internet and other computer networks. The principles and structure of IP addressing and the fundamentals of Ethernet concepts, media, and operations are introduced to provide a foundation for the curriculum. By the end of the course, participants will be able to build simple LANs, perform basic configurations for routers and switches, and implement IP addressing schemes.
Participants who complete Introduction to Networks will be able to perform the following functions:

Understand and describe the devices and services used to support communications in data networks and the Internet
Understand and describe the role of protocol layers in data networks
Understand and describe the importance of addressing and naming schemes at various layers of data networks in IPv4 and IPv6 environments
Design, calculate, and apply subnet masks and addresses to fulfill given requirements in IPv4 and IPv6 networks
Explain fundamental Ethernet concepts such as media, services, and operations
Build a simple Ethernet network using routers and switches
Use Cisco command-line interface (CLI) commands to perform basic router and switch configurations
Utilize common network utilities to verify small network operations and analyze data traffic
