Cisco CCNP®: Building Multilayer Switched Networks

Learning Outcomes:

• Accurately demonstrate how ISPs implement transparent LAN service to deliver Ethernet connectivity according to parameters in the Lesson Lab.

• Successfully build scalable multilayer switched networks using the set of criteria in the exercise.

• Demonstrate mastery in creating and deploying a global intranet utilizing the information contained in the Activity Lab.

• Successfully implement basic troubleshooting techniques, improve traffic flow, reliability, redundancy and performance for LAN switching as indicated in the Lesson Lab.

This next in the CCNP certification series will prepare the student for exam. The purpose of this five day course is to achieve a mid-career professional level of competency.
