Pearson CCNP SWITCH Lab Manual 2015 Edition by Cisco Networking Academy
The only authorized Lab Manual for the Cisco Networking Academy CCNP Version 7 SWITCH course A CCNP certification equips students with the knowledge and skills needed to plan, implement, secure, maintain, and troubleshoot converged enterprise networks. The CCNP certification requires candidates to pass three 120-minute exams-ROUTE 300-101, SWITCH 300-115, TSHOOT 300-135-that validate the key competencies of network engineers.The Cisco Networking Academy curriculum consists of three experience-oriented courses that employ industry-relevant instructional approaches to prepare students for professional-level jobs: CCNP ROUTE: Implementing IP Routing, CCNP SWITCH: Implementing IP Switching, and CCNP TSHOOT: Maintaining and Troubleshooting IP Networks.This course teaches students how to implement, monitor, and maintain switching in converged enterprise campus networks. Students will learn how to plan, configure, and verify the implementation of complex enterprise switching solutions. The course also covers the secure integration of VLANs, WLANs, voice, and video into campus networks. Comprehensive labs emphasize hands-on learning and practice to reinforce configuration skills.The 15 comprehensive labs in this manual emphasize hands-on learning and practice to reinforce configuration skills.
