    Description
    This is course 2 of 3 of the Cisco CCNA Routing and Switching Certification Objectives. The concepts covered in this course include Switching: how Layer 2 switches forward data; how STP enables redundancy in a Layer 2 network; the operation of dynamic address allocation in IPv6 networks by using SLAAC and DHCPv6; how FHRPs provide default gateway services in a redundant network; how vulnerabilities compromise LAN security; how Wireless LANs enable network connectivity; how routers use information in packets to make forwarding decisions; and troubleshooting static and default route configurations. The hands-on labs include Basic Configuration of devices by using security best practices; Implementing VLANs and trunking in a switched network; Troubleshooting inter-VLAN routing on Layer 3 devices; Troubleshooting EtherChannel on switched links; Implementing DHCPv4 to operate across multiple LANs; Configuring switch security to mitigate LAN attacks; Implementing a WLAN using a wireless router and WLC; configuring and troubleshooting IPv4 and IPv6 floating static routes.
