| Selecting Routing and Bridging Protocols for Cisco Networks |
| Course Status: | Released | Courseware Features |
| Course Language: | English | |
| Course Duration: | 3 Hours | |
| Deployment Options: | Online, Interactive CDs, Network, |
Audience |
| Network engineers, network system analysts, and maintenance personnel responsible for designing small to medium-sized networks; anyone working toward the Cisco Certified Design Associate qualification |
Prerequisites |
| The Cisco: Internetworking Technologies Multimedia (ITM) learning path or the Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices (ICND) and CCNA Basics learning paths; a good foundation in the principles and concepts of networks and computers; familiarity with internetworking technologies |
Course Aim |
| This learning path is an online, self-guided version of Cisco's instructor-led course. This learning path aims to provide networking professionals with the skills needed to design world-class small to medium-sized networks (fewer than 500 nodes). DCN takes a step-by-step approach toward designing an internetwork that meets customers' needs for functionality, performance, scalability, and security. This learning path fully prepares students for the Cisco Certified Design Associate (CCDA) exam, 640-441: Designing Cisco Networks. |
