Course Description

CCNA-Implementing and Administering Cisco Solutions v1.0 Boot Camp teaches professionals how to install, operate, configure, and verify a basic IPv4 and IPv6 network. You’ll learn how to configure network components, such as a switch, router, and Wireless LAN Controller. You’ll also gain skills needed to manage network devices and identify basic security threats.

Who should take this course?

This course is recommended for those pursuing their Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) certification, which is the starting point for all Cisco network infrastructure certifications. It’s ideal for entry-level networking engineers, administrators and technicians who support, operate and install Cisco networks.

The new CCNA course and certification now prepares associate-level IT professionals with skills in network security, automation and programmability. You can build a foundation for a broad spectrum of IT careers with the new CCNA.

Key Course Details

  • This is an intensive, extended-hours boot camp. Participants should expect to be in class for 12 hours on each of the five days.
  • Lab time:
    • 60 hours total over 90 days.
    • Labs are one-to-one and on virtual machines.
    • Be sure to log out of labs during class. Any remaining lab time can be used after class for additional practice and review.
