SWITCH Implementing Cisco Switched Networks

Target Audience

This is a five-day instructor-led course designed for network engineers with at least one year of professional work experience, who are ready to advance their skills and work independently on complex network solutions.

Students will learn to plan, configure and verify the implementation of complex enterprise switching solutions using Cisco’s Campus Enterprise Architecture.

The course also covers secure integration of VLANs, WLANs, voice and video into campus networks.  (There is no e-learning associated with the SWITCH course.)

This course is a component of the Cisco CCNP Routing and Switching curriculum.
