Suitable For

This course is intended for network engineers and administrators who will install, operate and troubleshoot a small branch office Enterprise network.

This is an entry level course and is ideal for those individuals new to networking andlooking to start their Cisco Career Certification accreditation such as Cisco CCENT certification, or Cisco CCNA Routing and Switching certification.

Key Job Tasks

Configure: Implement the identified solution by applying the planned implementation processes using Cisco IOS commands and applications in the correct order to the selected devices and portions of the network.
Verify: Use the appropriate show commands and applications to ensure that the solution was correctly implemented and is performing as desired.
Job roles: Entry-level network engineer, network administrator, network support technician, and help desk technician

Follow-On Courses

The following courses are recommended for further study:

ICND2 - Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices Part 2 - which covers topics in more depth and teaches learners how to perform basic troubleshooting steps in enterprise branch office networks and is required to gain CCNA Routing and Switching Certification
IINS - Implementing Cisco IOS Network Security - required to gain CCNA Security Certification.
IUWNE - Implementing Unified Wireless Networking Essentials - required to gain CCNA Wireless Certification.
ICOMM - Introducing Cisco Voice and Unified Communications Administration - required to gain CCNA Voice Certification.
SSPO - Supporting Cisco Service Provider IP NGN Operations - required to gain CCNA SP Operations Certification.

Prerequisites

Attendees should meet the following prerequisites:

Basic Windows navigation and keyboard literacy skills
Basic PC operating system navigation skills
Basic Internet usage skills
Basic IP addressing knowledge

Examination

Recommended preparation for exam(s):

100-101 - ICND1 Introduction to Cisco Network Devices Part 1

200-120 - CCNA - This is a composite exam consisting of both ICND1 & ICND2

Book your exam with Pearson VUE Testing Services.

Note: Passing the ICND1 exam (100-101) results in the award of the Cisco Certified Entry Network Technician (CCENT) certification. Students taking the composite exam will only be awarded the CCNA Routing and Switching Certification , they will not be awarded the CCENT certification.

Recertification

CCENT certifications are valid for three years. To recertify, pass either the ICND1 or ICND2 exam, or pass the current CCNA Routing and Switching exam, or pass a CCNA Concentration exam (Wireless, Security, Voice), or pass any 642-XXX professional level or Cisco Specialist exam (excluding Sales Specialist exams), or pass a current CCIE or CCDE written exam.
