CCNA

Description

The Implementing and Administering Cisco
Solutions (CCNA) course gives you a broad range of
fundamental knowledge for all IT careers. Through a
combination of lecture, hands-on labs, and self-study,
you will learn how to install, operate, configure, and
verify basic IPv4 and IPv6 networks. The course covers
configuring network components such as switches,
routers, and wireless LAN controllers; managing
network devices; and identifying basic security threats.
It also gives a foundation in network programmability,
and software-defined networking
