ROUTING AND SWITCHING IN THE ENTERPRISE
Catalog Description:
92C – Routing and Switching in the Enterprise
3 units
Third of four courses in the Cisco® Networking Academy® CCNA® Discovery program, providing
career-oriented, IT-skills instruction. CCNA Discovery prepares the student for the Cisco Certified
Entry Network Technician (CCENT™) and Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA™) exams.
Students will implement, configure, and troubleshoot an enterprise LAN network utilizing VLANs,
access control lists, WAN links and advanced routing protocols. Prerequisite: CAS 92B. 2 hours
lecture, 2 hours laboratory.
[Typical contact hours: lecture 35, laboratory 35]
