CCNA - Cisco Certified Network Associate

A CCNA certification from Cisco shows that you have a basic knowledge of networking in the small office/home office arena. You can install, configure, and operate a local area network (LAN), wide area network (WAN), and dial access services for small (up to 100-node) networks using a variety of protocols.

The Cisco CCNA network associate certification validates the ability to install, configure, operate, and troubleshoot medium-size routed and switched networks, including implementation and verification of connections to remote sites in a WAN. This new curriculum includes basic mitigation of security threats, introduction to wireless networking concepts and terminology, and performance-based skills. This new curriculum also includes (but is not limited to) the use of these protocols: IP, Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP), Serial Line Interface Protocol Frame Relay, Routing Information Protocol Version 2 (RIPv2),VLANs, Ethernet, access control lists (ACLs)

Exams

Candidates have the option of gaining the certification by passing two tests (640-822 ICND1 and 640-816 ICND2), or one single test (CCNA 640-802); the two-test option has the advantage of allowing the candidate to focus on certain subjects
