This course is over 45+ hours long and will cover all the needed subjects to be successful in passing the CCNA 200-120 exam and the new CCNA 200-125.

Students will acquire the knowledge and practice labs in this course to make it transferable to real world use, as a Cisco and/or IT Professional.

It is the students responsibility to have these to practice with. The Cisco Packet Tracer & VIRAL (Virtual Internet Routing Lab) are Cisco proprietary software and can only be obtained through Cisco. However, students have more options that those. They can create their own lab with real equipment, get BOSON or GNS3. It is up to each student to obtain the simulator/emulator of their choice to study along with this course.Please also NOTE: .pkt files are not up-loadable to UDEMY's site.This means you would have to replicate my labs here in order to practice and follow along.

This course will give students an in-depth understanding of networking, using routers and switches and their various configurations and connections. Students will learn how to configure; default, static and dynamic routing. Students will comprehend how to manipulate each of the routing protocols attributes to meet the requirements of the network.

The student will also learn how to create redundancy in their networks through the use of Redundancy Protocols such as HSRP which is just as important. Also, within the WAN, the student will also learn how to create VPN’s and GRE Tunnels.

About "the book":

Throughout the course, you will hear me mention "your book", "a book" or "the book"...and if you're wondering why I don't mention a name...it's because this was done on purpose.

I don't want anyone to purchase a book if you already have one...all CCNA study guides cover the same thing in different manners. So if you already have a CCNA book, you can use it with this course.

However, for those that wonder which book I use in this course...here they are:

  1. Sybex book by Todd Lammle - CCNA 200-120
  2. Amazon book by Lazaro Diaz - The Only IP Book You Will Ever Need.

Hope you enjoy the course.
