NETI 218 - Cisco Certified Network Associate v7 Bridging Content PREREQUISITES: NETI 115 - Routing and Switching or NETI 215 - Connecting Networks ; or a valid CCNA certification completed before 2/24/2020; and Program Chair approval. PROGRAM: Network Infrastructure CREDIT HOURS MIN: 1 LECTURE HOURS MIN: 1 DATE OF LAST REVISION: Fall, 2019
Covers the additional content on the new CCNA 200-301 Exam Students transitioning from the previous version of the CCNA curriculum (v6.0) can use this course to learn the new concepts. Students will develop skills necessary to configure WLANs (Wireless LANs) using WLC (Wireless LAN Controller) and Layer 2 security best practices. Explain how vulnerabilities, threats, and exploits can be mitigated to enhance network security, explain how VPNs (Virtual Private Networks) and IPsec secure site-to-site and remote access connectivity, and explain how network automation is enabled through RESTful APIs and configuration management tools.
