COURSE OBJECTIVES
Upon completing this course, the student will be able to meet these overall objectives:
Describe the hierarchical campus structure, basic switch operation, use of SDM templates, PoE, and LLDP
Implement VLANs, trunks, explain VTP, implement DHCP in IPv4 and IPv6 environment, and configure port aggregation
Implement and optimize STP mechanism that best suits your network – PVSTP+, RPVSTP+, or MST
Configure routing on a multilayer switch
Configure NTP, SNMP, IP SLA, port mirroring, and verify StackWise and VSS operation
Implement First Hop redundancy in IPv4 and IPv6 environments
Secure campus network according to recommended practices
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
A network professional who will need to correctly implement switch-based solutions given a network design using Cisco IOS services and features. The typical job roles for this type of professional are network engineers, network operations center (NOC) technical support personnel, or help desk technicians.
PREREQUISITES
Practical experience in installing, operating and maintaining Cisco routers & switches in an enterprise environment is recommended.
