High Perks after Certification

This CCNP training is meant for those professionals who have one year of experience in the networking field and is one of many CISCO training. These professionals plan, implement, verify and troubleshoot LAN’s and WAN’s while working in conjunction with other network specialists such as those who work on the security system, wireless, voice and video solutions. The knowledge obtained from this certification provides a lasting foundation that is relevant in the physical as well as the virtualized networks of today and the coming times.

Who should take this course

Network professionals including network engineers.
Network operations centre (NOC) technical support staffs.
Help desk specialists.
Any individual involved in implementation and verification of routeing protocols in enterprise networks.

Prerequisites

Delegates must be experienced in the audit of operation path and switching technologies and implementation experience as required by the Cisco Network Devices Part 1 Version 2.0 (ICND1) and Cisco Network Devices Part 2 Version 2.0 (ICND2) courses.Any delegates having an equal skill can also sit for this course.

What Will You Learn

On completing the course, the candidates will have gained familiarity with the following concepts:

Plan and document the configuration and verification of routeing conventions in enterprise networks
Identify, analyse, and match OSPF multiarea routeing functions and benefits
Deploy and verify a Layer 3 solution using BGP to connect an enterprise network to a service provider

About Glasgow

Glasgow

Glasgow is largest city located in Scotland and third largest in the United Kingdom. Earlier, it was a part of Lanark shire which is now one of the 32 council areas of Scotland. Glasgow is located on River Clyde in country’s west central lowlands. People of Glasgow are referred as Glaswegians. Glasgow developed from a small rural settlement on River Clyde.

Between 2000 and 2005 around 153,000 jobs were created and growth rate reached 32%. The annual economic growth rate of Glasgow is 4.4% and is now second to London. Dominant industries like shipbuilding, heavy engineering gradually got replaced. Major manufacturing industries in the city are Clyde Blowers, Linn Products, William Grant and Sons, Aggreko, Weir Group, Whyle and Mackay, Albion Motors, British Polar Engines and Edrington Group. Glasgow was once a most important city in the UK for manufacturing which generated great wealth for the city. Glasgow is now the second most popular foreign tourist destination in Scotland. In the 21st century, some call centres in Glasgow grew substantially. City’s primary manufacturing industries include engineering, construction, shipbuilding, brewing and distilling, printing and publishing, chemicals, textiles and new growth sectors like software development, biotechnology and optoelectronics.
