Cisco Certified Network Associate Exam
|
|
Those IT Professionals who wish to enhance their networking skills and elevate their career must get certified as Cisco Certified Network Associate(CCNA). CCNA is one of the highly respected and recognized certifications in the IT field. Taking CCNA course, the IT professionals learn to install, configure, operate, and troubleshoot small & medium-size routing and switching networks. Getting trained for CCNA credential, the candidates can successfully implement and verify LAN & WAN links, analyse and protect network from various threats, and get in-depth understanding of wireless networking concepts and terminology..
Designed by the highly experienced technologists, the new CCNA program covers the use of these technologies: IP, Serial Line Interface Protocol, Frame Relay, Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP), VLANs, Routing Information Protocol (RIP), Access Control Lists (ACLs)and Ethernet, etc.
The recommended audience for this course includes; field technicians, desk engineers, level 1 system integrators and engineers. This credential is a prerequisite for Cisco Certified Network Professional(CCNP) certification.
Requisites-
To receive Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) accreditation, the candidate must pass CCNA 200-120.
The following topics are general guidelines for the content likely to be included on the Cisco Certified Network Associate exam. However, other related topics may also appear on any specific delivery of the exam. In order to better reflect the contents of the exam and for clarity purposes, the guidelines below may change at any time without notice.
