Key Learning Points

Course Overview

The candidates lay their basis for doing the CCNA Security Training by choosing for the ICND1 ver 3.0 course. During this course, candidates learn how to install, configure, operate, and confirm a basic IPv4 and IPv6 network. Delegates also learn to configure a LAN switch, and an IP router. They also learn to manage network devices, and identifying primary security threats. This course can also be followed or even substituted by CCENT (Cisco Certified Entry Network Technician). The course delivers knowledge and skills necessary to install, configure, and operate networks. CCENT is the first step toward achieving CCNA certifications that lead to various paths. These paths enable the delegates to work with medium-size enterprise branch networks with more complex connections.

About Derby

Derby is a city and unitary borough in Derbyshire, England. It is located on the banks of the River Derwent in the south of Derbyshire, of which it was usually the county town. At the 2011 survey, the population was 248,700. Derby increased city status in 1977.

Derby was established by Romans who recognised the town of Derventio, who made Derby one of the Five Boroughs of the Danelaw. Initially a market town, Derby developed rapidly in the industrial age. Home to Lombe's Mill, an early British factory, Derby has a right to be one of the birthplaces of the Industrial Revolution. It covers the southern part of the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site. With the influx of the railways in the 19th century, Derby developed a centre of the British rail industry.

Government:

By traditional meanings, Derby is the county town of Derbyshire, although Derbyshire's managerial centre has in recent years been Matlock. On 1 April 1997 Derby City Council turned a unitary authority again, with the rest of Derbyshire managed from Matlock. On 7 July 2014, Derby's first ever youth mayor was chosen. Derby is split into 17 districts.

Geography:

Derby is located in a comparatively low-lying area along the lower valley of the River Derwent and dishonesties between the lowlands and valley of the River Trent to the south, and the south-east foothills of the Pennies to the north which spread to the Peak District National Park further on. The city is surrounded by four national character parts which comprise the Trent Valley Washlands to the south, the Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire and Yorkshire Coalfields in the east, the South Derbyshire Claylands in the west, and the Derbyshire Peak Fringe in the north. Most of the flat plains nearby Derby lie in the Trent Valley Washlands and South Derbyshire Claylands while the hillier northern parts of the city lie within the Derbyshire Peak Fringe and the Coalfields.

Climate:

Under the Köppen climatic organisation, Derby, in the meanness of its distance to large bodies of water, has an oceanic weather along with the rest of the British Isles. The readings are from the closest station available in Watnall, but climate inclines to be very alike between locations and cities in the region, although the Watnall station is located at a somewhat higher elevation, 17 kilometres (11 mi) to the north.
