Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP)
IIUSA-330: Building Scalable Cisco Internetworks (BSCI)
Course length: 40 hrs
Prerequisites: Completion of IIUSA-310: ICND, and significant progress toward the CCNA credential or equivalent work experience.
Tuition: $2305
The Building Scalable Cisco Internetworks (BSCI) course focuses on using Cisco routers connected in LANs and WANs typically found at medium to large network sites. Upon completion of this course, students will be able to select and implement the appropriate Cisco IOS services required to build a scalable, routed network.
BSCI is part of the recommended training path for those students seeking the Cisco Certified Design Professional (CCDP) credential.
After completing this course, students will be able to:
- extend IP addresses, using VLSM and route summarization.
- configure OSPF, EIGRP, and BGP.
- control network activity using access list-based features.
- redistribute routes between different routing protocols such as RIP, IGRP, EIGRP, and OSPF
- configure Cisco routers with Ethernet LAN and serial WAN interfaces
The following is an outline of BSCI course modules:
- Scalable Internetworks
- Scalable Routing Protocols
- Controlling Scalable Internetworks
- Routing Principles
- Extending IP Addresses
- Configuring OSPF in a Single Area
- Interconnecting Multiple OSPF Areas
- Configuring Enhanced EIGRP
- Configuring Basic Border Gateway Protocol
- Implementing BGP in Scalable Networks
- Optimizing Routing Update Operation
Special notes: This course, together with course IIUSA-331, IIUSA-332, and IIUSA-333, serves to prepare students for the Cisco Certified Network Professional credential.
IIUSA-331: Building Cisco Multi-Layer Switched Networks (BCMSN)
Course length: 40 hrs
Prerequisites: Completion of IIUSA-330: BSCI or familiarity with internetworking fundamentals and hands-on experience with basic router and switch configuration tasks.
Tuition: $2305
In the Building Cisco Multilayer Switched Networks (BCMSN) course, network administrators learn how to build campus networks using multilayer switching technologies over high speed Ethernet. This course includes both routing and switching concepts, covering both Layer 2 and Layer 3 technologies. BCMSN is part of the recommended training path for those students seeking the Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP), Cisco Certified Design Professional (CCDP), and Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert (CCIE) certifications.
Upon completion of this course, the student will be able to meet the following overall objectives:
- Given a campus design that includes multilayer switching over Fast Ethernet, deploy the required Cisco products and services that enable connectivity and traffic transport.
- Implement the necessary services at each layer of the network to all users to obtain membership in multicast groups in a working multilayer switched network.
- Given a working multilayer switched network, control network traffic by implementing the necessary admission policy at each layer of the network topology.
- When presented with an incorrectly working multilayer switched network, restore proper network operations through the use of Cisco devices and external management tools.
Special notes: This course, together with course IIUSA-330, IIUSA-332, and IIUSA-333, serves to prepare students for the Cisco Certified Network Professional credential.
IIUSA-332: Building Cisco Remote Access Networks (BCRAN)
Course length: 40 hrs
Prerequisites: Completion of the Building Cisco Multilayer Switched Networks (BCMSN) course (IIUSA-331). Students must be familiar with general networking terms and concepts, general Cisco router operation and configuration, as well and TCP/IP operations and configurations. Students must also understand Routing Protocols and PPP.
Tuition: $2305
In the Building Cisco Remote Access Networks course, students learn how to build, configure and troubleshoot a remote access network to interconnect central sites to branch offices and home offices. Students also learn how to control access to the central site, as well as to maximize bandwidth utilization over the remote links.
Upon completion of this course, the student will be able to perform the following overall tasks:
- Identify the appropriate Cisco products for a given set of WAN technology requirements, including permanent or dialup access between a central site, branch offices, and telecommuters.
- When given a set of WAN topologies and specifications, assemble and configure Cisco equipment to establish appropriate WAN connections.
- Enable protocols and technologies that allow traffic flow between multiple sites, while minimizing the amount of overhead traffic on each connection.
- Implement quality of service capabilities to ensure that mission critical applications receive the required bandwidth within a given WAN topology.
- Within a given WAN topology, implement applicable access control measures to allow desired access into the network.
- When given a WAN topology, ensure proper connectivity using Cisco product features to troubleshoot device protocols and technologies.
Special notes: This course, together with course IIUSA-330, IIUSA-331, and IIUSA-333, serves to prepare students for the Cisco Certified Network Professional credential.
IIUSA-333: Cisco Internetwork Troubleshooting (CIT)
Course length: 40 hrs
Prerequisites: Students should take BSCI (IIUSA-330), BCMSN (IIUSA-331), and BCRAN (IIUSA-332) before taking CIT, for knowledge on how to work with Cisco IOS and Catalyst software.
Tuition: $2305
The Cisco Internetwork Troubleshooting (CIT) course teaches students how to baseline and troubleshoot an environment using Cisco routers and switches for multiprotocol client hosts and servers connected with the following:
- Ethernet and Fast Ethernet LANs
- Serial, Frame Relay, and ISDN BRI WANs
The course provides students with methodical practice using specific Cisco IOS software and Catalyst software tools to diagnose and correct problems on widely installed Cisco products.
Special notes: This course, together with course IIUSA-330, IIUSA-331, and IIUSA-332, serves to prepare students for the Cisco Certified Network Professional credential.
