Remote Cisco Training Courses

ICND1E - Interconnecting Cisco Networking Devices Part 1 - Interactive Learning

 

course objectives

With Vortex 6 training programmes, the emphasis is on learning in bite-sized chunks, practice over theory, and progressing at a pace that suits the individual. Proven to be more effective, this approach ensures that delegates gain more knowledge and develop better skills. The result is that Vortex 6 students are more successful at work and easily gain Cisco certifications.

Each course is split into modules. Each module begins with a live instructor-led class, delivered online by a skilled Cisco Certified Systems Instructor. This is the “Gather” part of the GEAR cycle. The online classes are followed by self-paced study. Delegates “Expand” their knowledge using Premium e-learning, student manuals and online reference material and then “Apply” what they have learnt using practice labs. The module is completed with a short assessment. Each module includes approximately four hours of study and feedback: a two hour live class and two hours of self study.

Vortex 6 programmes are spread over 5 weeks, with two course sessions per week. This ensures that delegates have the time required to thoroughly understand each topic. More importantly, they can practice and develop the real-world skills that they require to be good at their job.

After completing this course the student should be able to:

  • Describe how networks function, identifying major components, function of network components and the Open System Interconnection (OSI) reference model
  • Using the host-to-host packed delivery process, describe issues related to increasing traffic on an Ethernet LAN and identify switched LAN technology solutions to Ethernet networking issues
  • Describe the reasons for extending the reach of a LAN and the methods that can be used with a focus on RF wireless access
  • Describe the reasons for connecting networks with routers and how routed networks transmit data through networks using TCP/IP
  • Describe the function of Wide Area Networks (WANs), the major devices of WANs, and configure PPP encapsulation, static and dynamic routing, PAT and RIP routing
  • Use the command-line interface to discover neighbours on the network and managing the router's start-up and configuration.

After completing this course the student should be able to:
  • Review how to configure and troubleshoot a small network
  • Expand the switched network from a small LAN to a medium-sized LAN with multiple switches, supporting VLANs, trunking, and spanning tree
  • Describe routing concepts as they apply to medium-sized networks and discuss considerations when implementing routing on the networking
  • Configure, verify and troubleshoot OSPF
  • Configure, verify and troubleshoot EIGRP
  • Determine how to apply ACLs based on network requirements, and to configure, verify, and troubleshoot ACLs on a medium-sized network
  • Describe when to use NAT or PAT on a medium-sized network, and configure NAT or PAT on routers
  • Identify and implement the appropriate WAN technology based on network requirement.
