CNT 101
Network Connectivity 4-0-4
Study of
the devices and protocols used to connect computers and support devices into a
network. Topics include; OSI model
(layers 1 & 2), IP and MAC addresses, TCP, ARP, and RARP.
The function of soft hubs, switches and routers are compared and
contrasted. Media design,
structured cabling, and network management are
also covered.
This course is the first of four that prepares students for the Cisco
Certified Network Associate degree or certification.
CNT 102 Router Configuration 4-0-4
Study of
routers, their configuration, and their place in networking.
Topics include: OSI model (all layers), routing principals (usage,
components, startup, setup, and configuration).
The difference between routed and routing protocols also is covered. This course is the second of four that prepares students for
the Cisco Certified Network Associate.
Prerequisites:
CNT 101; with a
grade of C or better.
CNT
103 Local Area Networks 4-0-4
Study of
Local Area Networks. Topics
include: LAN switching, Virtual LANS, LAN design, Access lists, IGRP, and IPX.
Each subject is explored through the use of threaded case studies.
This course is the third of four that prepares students for the Cisco
Certified Network Associate degree.
Prerequisites:
CNT 102; with a
grade of C or better.
CNT
104 Wide Area Networks 4-0-4
Study of
Wide Area Networks. Topics include: WAN principles/design, PPP, ISDN, and Frame Relay. Each subject is explored through the use of threaded case
studies. Also includes a
review in preparation for the CCNA exam. This
course is the last of four that prepares students for the Cisco Certified
Network Associate.
Prerequisites:
CNT 201; with a grade
of B or better.
CNT 205 Advanced Routing 4-0-4
This
class will introduce advanced routing protocols required on scalable networks.
Topics include: OSPF, EIGRP, and BGP operations and configuration. Course
addresses those tasks that network managers and administrators need to perform
when managing access and controlling overhead traffic in growing routed networks. Discuss router capabilities used
to control traffic over LANs and WANs, as well as connecting corporate networks
to an Internet service provider (ISP). The class is designed to prepare students
to pursue the Cisco CCNP examination. Prerequisite: CNT 104 or CCNA
certification
CNT 206 Remote Access 4-0-4
This course teaches students how to build a remote access network to
interconnect central sites to branch offices and home office/telecommuters. Once
the network is built, the course teaches students how to control access
to the central site, as well as maximizes bandwidth utilization over the remote
links. The class is designed to prepare students to pursue the Cisco CCNP
examination. Prerequisite: CNT 104 or CCNA certification
CNT 207 Multi-layer Switching 4-0-4
This course teaches network administrators how to build campus networks using
multilayer-switching technologies over a high-speed Ethernet. The class will
include an overview of SPT, bridging, switching, and VLAN management. Students
also will design, configure, and troubleshoot multi-layered switched and routed
networks. The class is designed to prepare students to pursue the Cisco CCNP
examination. Prerequisite: CNT 104 or CCNA certification
CNT 208 Network Trouble Shooting 4-0-4
This courses teaches students how to baseline and troubleshoot a LAN and WAN
environment. Students learn to test and identify problems with routers and
switches in multi-protocol environments. Topics include: Ethernet, Fast Ethernet,
and Token Ring LANs; and serial, frame, relay, and ISDN BRI WANs. The class is
designed to prepare students to pursue the Cisco CCNP examination.
Prerequisite: CNT 205, CNT 206, and CNT 207
