Course Overview
This five-day course covers the essential topics of ICND1 and ICND2 in an intensive Bootcamp format. It teaches students the skills needed to install, operate, and troubleshoot a small-to-medium sized branch office Enterprise network, including configuring switches and routers, connecting to a WAN, and implementing network security. This course will also help students prepare for ICND1 Exam #640-822 and ICND2 Exam #640-816, or the CCNA Composite Exam # 640-802.
Target Audience
CCNA 2.0 is intended for students who have general knowledge of local and wide area networking and the underlying protocols such as TCP/IP and are prepared to learn at a fast pace. The goal is to gain the skills needed to configure, operate, and support small-to-medium sized Cisco networks and is for students working towards CCENT through CCNA certification. Students with no prior knowledge of networking are encouraged to take the ICND1 and ICND2 classes individually to learn the CCNA foundational topics at a slower pace.
