What really happens when we plug the cable on our PC or turn on WiFi to access to Internet? And when we surf on Internet? And when we send an email?

This course explains how small data networks are built and work. Focusing on architectures, devices and protocols every day we use unless we know. The goal is to provide participants basic skills that represent starting point for a career in Information Technology

 

The trainer is a senior engineer, Antonio Scicchitano, working in Milan. Several years of experience in Network and Unified Communication solutions and IT project manager.

 

7 days of training including travel days. From June 2016 to December 2017 every 2 months

Proposed program

 

Day 1

Presentations

Course Overview

TCP/IP Stack, Local Area Network LAN, Layer 2 Devices

Starting from data definition this section describes basic concepts of data networks

LAB 1: Introduction to Cisco Devices. This lab is an introduction to Cisco devices to get participants familiar with the Command Line Interface (CLI): the way to access and configure Cisco switches and routers

 

Day 2

Virtual LAN, Trunk. L2 Architecture, Spanning Tree, CDP

This section describes basic local area networks architecture and protocols

LAB2: Configuring VLAN. LAB3: Advanced Switch Configuration

In these labs participants begin to configure Cisco devices for a Layer 2 architecture

 

Day 3

Variable Length Subnet Mask VLSM. L3 devices. Intervlan Routing.

This section introduces subnetting and basic routing concepts to begin to understand how networks are interconnected

LAB3: Configuring Intervlan Routing

LAB4: Implementing VLSM

In these labs participants go deeper in Cisco devices configuration implementing interconnection between subnets

 

Day 4

Wide Area Networks WAN. IP Routing: static and dynamic routing. Routing Protocols: RIP, OSPF. This section describes protocols used to forward data through the networks.

LAB5: Configuring Routing on Cisco Routers

In this lab participants configure Cisco devices to interconnect distributed local networks through a wide area network

 

Day 5

Network Address Translation NAT, Address Control List ACL. This section describes public and private networks, how they are mapped, and how is possible to filter data traffic flow.

LAB6: Configuring NAT and ACL

In this lab participants configure NAT and ACL on Cisco devices
