Interconnecting Cisco Networking Devices Part 2 (ICND2)

This hands-on Authorised Cisco course builds on the foundation provided by ICND1 (Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices 1), providing a technical foundation for the rest of the Authorised Cisco curriculum. Whether your goal is to familiarise yourself with Cisco technology or to become a Cisco Certified Internetworking Expert, ICND1 and ICND2 are the place to start. This course not only delivers essential information needed to pass the CCNA certification exams, but it also includes comprehensive hands-on reinforcement to ensure that you add skills and not just knowledge. If you are new to Cisco, ICND2 prepares you for the tasks you will face on the job.

Course Objectives

• Review how to configure and troubleshoot a switch and router in a small network environment
• Expand the switched network from a small to medium network environment
• Dangers of redundant switching
• Spanning Tree
• Concepts of VLANs and trunking
• Implementing VLSM
• Configure, verify, and troubleshoot OSPF
• Configure, verify, and troubleshoot EIGRP
• Determine when to use access control lists (ACLs)
• Configure, verify, and troubleshoot ACLs
• Configure NAT and PAT
• IPv6 addressing

• VPN solutions

Prerequisites
ICND2 assumes a basic working knowledge of bridges and routers and a complete understanding of the OSI model, IP addressing, and IP subnetting. ICND1 is recommended and builds a strong foundation for this course. Understanding Networking Fundamentals and TCP/IP Networking also serve as prerequisites.


Who should attend
ICND2 is designed for those who have a firm background in data networking, have some hands-on experience with Cisco routers and switches, and are looking to increase their knowledge of installation, maintaining, and troubleshooting medium-sized switched and routed networks or for those who are looking to achieve the first level of Cisco certification, the CCNA. We strongly recommend that other students start with ICND1.
