Basic Cisco Campus Switching Design Considerations

Course Status:	Released	Courseware Features
Course Language:	English
Course Duration:	3 Hours
Deployment Options:	Online, Interactive CDs

Audience

Network engineers, network system analysts, and maintenance personnel responsible for designing small to medium-sized and enterprise networks; individuals seeking the Cisco Certified Design Associate (CCDA) certification and those individuals targeting towards the Cisco Certified Design Professional (CCDP) certification

Prerequisites

The knowledge and skills contained in 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 will enable the learner to gather customer's internetworking requirements, identify solutions, and design the network infrastructure and elements to ensure the basic functionality of the proposed solutions. It will provide the learner with the knowledge and skills to achieve associate level competency in network design. It is an online, self-guided path designed to correlate to Cisco's own instructor led course DESGN 1.0. Designing for Cisco Internetwork Solutions is the first design course in a curriculum supporting the design certification track Cisco Certified Design Associate (CCDA) and Cisco Certified Design Professional (CCDP). It is recommended training for preparing for the CCDA certification exam (641-861 DESGN).
