The CCNA certification (Cisco Certified
Network Associate) indicates a foundation in and apprentice knowledge of
networking. CCNA certified professionals can install, configure, and operate
LAN, WAN, and dial access services for small networks (100 nodes or fewer),
including but not limited to use of these protocols: IP, IGRP, Serial, Frame
Relay, IP RIP, VLANs, RIP, Ethernet, Access Lists.

Introduction to
Cisco Networking Technologies (INTRO)
CCNA Basics presents important networking
fundamentals using the Open Systems Interconnect (OSI) seven layer model
concepts; terminology and technologies are explained and illustrated using text
and graphics animation. The course includes online assessments that allow
learners to measure their progress throughout the learning experience.
Course Objectives:
After completing this course, students
will be able to:
Describe computer hardware basics, binary and
hexadecimal number systems, basic networking terminology, and
internetworking concepts
Identify the major components of a network
system, including clients and servers, network interface cards (NICs), internetworking devices, media, and topologies
Describe the functions, operations, and primary
components of local-area networks (LANs), wide-area networks (WANs),
metropolitan-area networks (MANs), storage-area
networks (SANs), content networks (CNs), and virtual private networks (VPNs)
Describe the major network access methods and
outline the key features of each
Describe the functions and operations of
switching technologies
Explain the format and significance of each of
the following components to a network system: IP addressing, classes,
reserved address space, and subnetting
Calculate valid subnetwork
addresses and mask values so that user/network requirements are met when
given an IP address scheme
Explain the purposes of networking addresses,
routing protocols, and routed protocols
Describe the functions, operations, and primary
components of WAN technologies
