Cisco is a world-wide leader in IT, networking, and security solutions. Achieving the Cisco Certified Network Associate Certification (CCNA) is a valuable first step toward a career in IT. To gain CCNA certification, you must pass one exam that covers a wide range of IT fundamentals and knowledge bases including the latest networking technologies, software development skills, and job roles. CCNA certification gives you the foundation to build the career you want.

The goal of this course is to provide you with all the tools you need to prepare for the Cisco Certified Network Associate (200-301 CCNA) exam, including text explanations, video demos, lab activities, self-assessment questions, and a practice exam, to increase your chances of passing the exam on your first try.

Duration: Approximately 40 hours (self-paced). Actual duration will vary by student.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Network Fundamentals: explain the role/function of routers, switches, access points, and firewalls; describe network architectures and topologies; compare physical interfaces and cabling types; understand IPv4/IPv6 addressing, subnetting, and TCP vs. UDP; explain wireless networking and virtualization fundamentals
  • Network Access: configure and verify VLANs and trunking; implement Layer 2 discovery protocols (CDP, LLDP); configure and troubleshoot EtherChannel and STP; describe WLAN components and connections
  • IP Connectivity: interpret routing table components and forwarding decisions; configure and verify IPv4/IPv6 static routing; implement and troubleshoot single-area OSPFv2; explain First Hop Redundancy Protocols (FHRPs)
  • IP Services: configure and verify NAT and NTP; explain DHCP, DNS, SNMP, and syslog; configure secure remote access using SSH
  • Security Fundamentals: define key security concepts, threats, and vulnerabilities; configure and verify ACLs; implement port security and DHCP snooping; describe wireless security protocols (WPA, WPA2, WPA3)
  • Automation and Programmability: explain how network automation impacts network management; compare traditional, controller-based, and software-defined architectures; describe REST-based APIs and interpret JSON-encoded data
