Network Cabling and Routing (CCNA1+CCNA2)

• 22 hrs lectures
• 24 hrs laboratories

• 78 pts mid-term test (written part)
• 22 pts labs

Overview of LANs and practical skill with cabling. Configuration of routers and switches.
Network troubleshooting: physical, link, and network layers. Overview and selection of routing protocols. Configuring a router. The contents of the course corresponds to CCNA 1 and CCNA 2 courses.

Students gain practical skills with switch configuration, Ethernet technology virtual LANs (VLANs). The course also deals with IP addressing, routing, basic configuration of routers, routing protocol RIP, and access control list configuration. The content of the course covers CCNA 1 (Introduction to Networks) and CCNA 2 (Routing and Switching Essentails).

By completing the course you will acquire the practical knowledge of computer networks. You will understand the principles of computer communication, and you will also learn how to set up different network devices and troubleshoot network configuration.
