Class Description
This is the Second Certification course of CCNP Routing and Switching Certification which includes the following courses :
- Implementing Cisco IP Routing (ROUTE)
- Implementing Cisco IP Switched Networks (SWITCH)
- Troubleshooting and Maintaining Cisco IP Networks (TSHOOT)
Implementing Cisco IP Switched Networks (SWITCH)
- The SWITCH course builds on the switching skills that the student developed in the CCNA Routing and Switching curriculum.
- This course will prepare students to design, implement, and manage complex enterprise switching environments using the Cisco Enterprise Campus Architecture though lectures and hands-on lab exercises.
Basic Concepts and Network Design
- Campus Network Structure
- Comparing Layer 2 and Multilayer Switches
- Cisco SDM Templates
- LLDP
- PoE
Campus Network Architecture
- VLANs and Trunks
- VTP
- DHCP
- DHCP for IPv6
- Layer 2 Port Aggregation
Spanning Tree Implementation
- RSTP
- STP Stability Mechanisms
- MST
Inter-VLAN Routing
- Inter-VLAN Routing Using a Router
- Configuring a Switch to Route
High-Availability Networks
- Network Time Protocol (NTP)
- SNMP Version 3
- Cisco IOS IP SLA
- Port Mirroring for Monitoring Support
- Verifying Switch Virtualization
First Hop Redundancy Protocol Implementation
- Layer 3 Redundancy with HSRP
- Layer 3 Redundancy with VRRP
- Layer 3 Redundancy with GLBP
- First Hop Redundancy Protocol for IPv6
Campus Network Security
- Port Security
- Storm Control
- Access to External Authentication
- Mitigating Spoofing Attacks
- Securing VLAN Trunks
- PVLANs
Upon completing this course, the learner will be able to meet these overall objectives:
- Describe the hierarchical campus structure, basic switch operation, use of SDM templates, PoE, and LLDP
- Implement VLANs, trunks, explain VTP, implement DHCP in IPv4 and IPv6 environment, and configure port aggregation
- Implement and optimize STP mechanism that best suits your network – PVSTP+, RPVSTP+, or MSTP
- Configure routing on a multilayer switch
- Configure NTP, SNMP, IP SLA, port mirroring, and verify StackWise and VSS operation
- Implement First Hop redundancy in IPv4 and IPv6 environments
- Secure campus network according to recommended practices
- Network Engineers
- Network Operations Center (NOC) Technical Support Personnel
- Help Desk Technicians
- A network professional who will need to correctly implement switch-based solutions given a network design using Cisco IOS services and features
- Any individual involved in network operations and support
It is highly recommended that this course be taken after the following Cisco courses:
