Price: TBA

    Course details

    This course focuses on providing the skills and knowledge necessary to install, operate, and troubleshoot a small branch office Enterprise network, including configuring a switch, a router, and connecting to a WAN and implementing network security.

    A Student should be able to complete configuration and implementation of a small branch office network under supervision.

    Recommended as preparation for exam(s):

    • 640-822 ICND1
    • 640-802 CCNA – This is a composite exam consisting of both ICND1 & ICND2

    Note:  passing the ICND1 (640-822) exam results in the award of the Cisco Certified Entry Network Technician (CCENT) certification.
