BCMSN: Building Cisco Multilayer Switched Networks |
|
Course Length: 5 days.
Overview This course is recommended training for individuals seeking certification as CCNP® . This course enables students to use appropriate technologies to build scalable multilayer switched networks, to create and deploy a global intranet, and to implement basic troubleshooting techniques in environments that use multilayer switches for client hosts and services. This course also enables learners to improve traffic flow, reliability, redundancy, and performance for LAN switching that is self-supported or transported via a service provider. The purpose of this course is to enable a learner to achieve a mid-career professional-level competency. After completing this course the student should be able to use the Campus Infrastructure module of the Enterprise Composite Network Model to deploy an efficient and expandable enterprise network. Students will also be able to define VLANs to segment network traffic and manage network utilization. In addition, students will be able to implement STP to accelerate network traffic convergence in Layer 2. Students will also be able to troubleshoot spanning tree, and identify enhancements provided by RSTP and MST. Additionally, they will be confident in implementing multilayer switching to enable higher data throughput between isolated VLANs.
Audience BCMSN is designed for network personnel who manage network performance, security or design and for network administrators seeking to become certified in CCNP®, CCDP® or CCIE®.
