CCNP 3 Building Multilayer Switched Networks

Prerequisites

• Students should have completed CCNA 1 - 4 or equivalent.
• CCNA Certification desired but not required.
• Work experience beneficial.

Course Description

CCNP: Building Multilayer Switched Networks is one of four courses leading to the Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) designation. Multilayer Switching teaches students about the deployment of state-of-the-art campus LANs. The course focuses on the selection and implementation of the appropriate Cisco IOS services to build reliable, scalable multilayer-switched LANs. Students will develop skills in the following areas:

• Introduction to Campus Networks
• Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs)
• Spanning Tree Protocol
• Inter-VLAN Routing
• High Availability in a Campus Environment
• Wireless Client Access
• Minimizing Service Loss and Data Theft in a Campus Network
• Configuring Campus Switches to Support Voice

This hands-on, lab-oriented course stresses the design, implementation, operation, and troubleshooting of multilayer switched networks.

Course Outcomes

CCNP 3 is an integral step towards achieving CCNP Certification. Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:

• Describe the Campus Infrastructure module of the ECNM
• Define VLANs to segment network traffic and manage network utilization
• Explain the procedure for configuring both 802.1Q and ISL trunking between two switches so that VLANs that span the switches can connect
• Describe how VLAN configuration of switches in a single management domain can be automated with the Cisco proprietary VTP
• Implement high availability technologies and techniques using multilayer switches in a campus environment
• Understand Wireless LANs
• Describe and configure switch infrastructure to support voice
• Describe and implement security features in a switched network

Certification Alignment

The curriculum is aligned with ILSGs BCMSN course and the 642-812 exam.
