  • ROUTING AND SWITCHING TECHNOLOGIES

ROUTING AND SWITCHING TECHNOLOGIES

About this Course

This course describes the architecture, components, and operations of routers and switches in a small and medium network. The goal is to develop an understanding of how a router and switch communicates with each other in a small and medium-sized business network to implement basic and advanced route and switch functionality. By the end of this course the students will be able to configure advanced functionality in routers and switches, and be able to perform basic troubleshooting of these components. Using security best practices, the students will troubleshoot and resolve common protocol issues in both IPv4 and IPv6 networks. These course materials will assist you in developing the skills necessary to do the following: - Configure devices using security best practices. - Explain how Layer 2 switches forward data. - Implement VLANs and trunking in a switched network. - Troubleshoot inter-VLAN routing on Layer 3 devices. - Explain how STP enables redundancy in a layer 2 network. - Troubleshoot EtherChannel on switched networks. - Implement DHCPv4 to operate across multiple LANs. - Configure dynamic address allocation in IPv6 networks. - Explain how FHRPs provide default gateway services in a redundant network. - Explain how vulnerabilities compromise LAN security. - Configure switch security to mitigate LAN attacks. - Explain how WLANs enable network connectivity. - Implement a WLAN using a wireless router and a WLC. - Explain how routers use information in packets to make forwarding decisions. - Configure IPv4 and IPv6 static routes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Course FAQ
Q1 : Do the students need real devices to complete this course?
A1 : An emulator can be used to simulate the networking environment and configurations. But having a chance to configure in a real device is a bonus.
