Program Overview

Cisco Enterprise Networking

Build a rock-solid networking foundation with routing protocols, switching, VLANs, and subnetting on real physical Cisco equipment.

Official Certification Track: This curriculum prepares candidates directly for the Cisco Certified Network Associate (200-301 CCNA) examination. Instruction incorporates real-world scenario troubleshooting, architectural best practices, and enterprise security compliance.

Curriculum & Course Outline

5 Intensive Hands-on Modules designed for mastery:

Module 1: Network Fundamentals & IPv4/IPv6 Subnetting

Part 01

Master the architectural foundations of modern data communication.

OSI 7-Layer reference model, TCP/IP protocol suite, and encapsulation
Binary-to-decimal conversion, classful vs classless addressing, and VLSM subnetting
IPv6 address structure, global unicast, link-local, and EUI-64 format
Physical cabling standards: Cat6 UTP, single-mode and multi-mode optical fiber

Module 2: Cisco LAN Switching Technologies & VLANs

Part 02

Engineer loop-free, high-performance switched enterprise local area networks.

MAC address learning, packet forwarding tables, and frame flooding mechanisms
VLAN creation, access ports, and 802.1Q trunk encapsulation
Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), Rapid STP (802.1w), PortFast, and BPDU Guard
Link Aggregation using LACP and PAgP EtherChannel port bundling

Module 3: IP Routing Technologies & OSPF Dynamic Protocol

Part 03

Configure deterministic IP packet forwarding and dynamic path discovery.

Router packet forwarding decision process and administrative distance metrics
Static routing, default gateway routing, and floating backup static routes
Open Shortest Path First (OSPFv2) neighbor adjacency, DR/BDR election, and cost metrics
Inter-VLAN routing using Router-on-a-Stick (ROAS) and Layer 3 Switch SVIs

Module 4: IP Services & Network Perimeter Security

Part 04

Protect internal corporate assets and manage IP address allocation.

Standard and Extended Access Control Lists (ACLs) with port-level filtering
Network Address Translation (NAT): Static NAT, Dynamic NAT, and PAT (Overload)
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, relay agents, and DHCP snooping
Network Time Protocol (NTP), Syslog remote logging, and SNMP monitoring

Module 5: Wireless Architecture & Network Programmability

Part 05

Explore controller-based wireless deployments and software-driven automation.

Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) architecture, CAPWAP tunnels, and SSIDs
WPA2 and WPA3 enterprise security frameworks and 802.1X wireless authentication
Introduction to Software-Defined Networking (SDN) and Cisco DNA Center
REST APIs, JSON data formatting, and configuration management tools (Ansible, Python)

Physical Lab Infrastructure

100% Hands-on Hardware & Real Equipment

Physical Cisco Rack with 2911/1941 ISR Routers, Catalyst 2960/3750 Switches, supplemented by Cisco Packet Tracer and GNS3

Physical Consoles Dedicated student console access to enterprise Cisco routers and switches

Troubleshooting Labs Configured fault scenarios to build realistic diagnostic muscle memory

Extended Lab Access Extra lab hours available for practice outside regular lecture times
