Prerequisites

The knowledge and skills that a learner must have before attending this course are as follows:

• Operate LANs with multiple switches, configure VLANs, trunking, spanning tree, DHCP, and port aggregation within Campus network
• Configure and troubleshoot IPv4 and IPv6 routing within a Enterprise network (static, EIGRP, multi-area OSPF, and RIPng)
• Implement enterprise Internet connectivity (static routes and basic BGP)
• Implement route redistribution using filtering mechanisms
• Implement path control using policy based routing and IP SLA
• Implement First Hop redundancy in IPv4 and IPv6 environments
• Configure devices for SNMP, Syslog, and NetFlow access
• Secure campus network according to recommended practices

It is highly recommended that you only attend this course (DESGN v3.0) after you have already attended the following Cisco courses:

• Implementing Cisco IP Switched Networks v2.0 (SWITCH v2.0)
• Implementing Cisco IP Routing v2.0 (ROUTE v2.0)
• Troubleshooting and Maintaining Cisco IP Networks v2.0 (TSHOOT v2.0)
