Catalog Description:
Untitled document
This course describes the architecture, components, and operations of routers and switches in a small network. Students learn how to configure a router and a switch for basic functionality and learn and the principles of routing and routing protocols. By the end of this course students will be able to configure and troubleshoot routers and switches and resolve common issues with single-area OSPF (Open Shortest Path First), VLANS (Virtual Local Area Networks), and inter-VLAN routing in both IPv4 and IPv6 networks. Routing and Switching Essentials is the second of the four courses leading to the Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) designation. CCNA 2 builds and expands on the topics learned in Networking Fundamentals (CCNA 1) and prepeares the students to take the Cisco Certified Entry Networking Technician (CCENT) test.

Prerequisites/Corequisites:
Completion of CS 82.21A


Recommended Preparation:
Eligibility for ENGL 100 or ESL 100
