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.
