Designing for Cisco Internetwork Solutions (DESGN) — A 5 day course
Synopsis
The 5-day DESGN training course will enable you to understand internetworking requirements, identify solutions, and design the network infrastructure and services to ensure the basic functionality of the proposed solutions.
This course will provide you with the knowledge and skills required to achieve associate level competency in network design.
Objectives:
By completing the course, the learners should be able to:
- Discuss methodology in network design
- Describe how to structure and modularize the network design using the Cisco Enterprise Architecture
- Design the enterprise campus and enterprise data center modules
- Design the enterprise edge and remote modules as needed
- Evaluate security solutions for the network
- Recommend a design for basic voice transport across the network
- Recommend a design for a basic wireless solution
- Design a network addressing plan and select suitable routing protocols for a given network design

Suitable For
Individuals seeking the Cisco Certified Design Associate (CCDA) certification
Individuals targeting towards the Cisco Certified Design Professional (CCDP) certification.
The course is also targeted at pre-sales and post-sales network engineers involved in the network design, planning and implementation.
Prerequisites
The prerequisites for the students attending the Designing for Cisco Internetwork Solutions (DESGN) course is:
- CCNA or equivalent level of knowledge is recommended - courses ICND1 and ICND2 would provide the recommended level of knowledge.
- A slightly higher level of Switching knowledge is also recommended-the SWITCH course provides that level of knowledge
- Delegates should also have practical experience with deploying and operating networks based on Cisco network devices and Cisco IOS software.
Examination
The DESGN course is recommended as preparation for exam:
- 640-864 DESGN
This course is part of the CCDA certification
