Cisco certified network associate is a comprehensive practical networking course designed to equip learners with the knowledge and hands-on skills required to install, configure, manage, troubleshoot and secure modern computer networks. The course provides a strong foundation in networking concepts while preparing learners for Cisco networking environments and professional networking roles.
Learners will study network architectures, network devices, IPv4 and IPv6 addressing, subnetting, Ethernet, switching, routing, VLANs, trunking, inter-VLAN routing, wireless networking, network services and basic network security. The course also introduces Cisco device configuration using the command-line interface, including routers and switches, as well as essential concepts such as static routing, dynamic routing, DHCP, DNS, NAT, access control and network troubleshooting.
Practical laboratory activities are integrated throughout the course to help learners develop real-world networking skills. Learners will configure simulated and physical network environments, analyse network connectivity, troubleshoot common faults, implement VLANs and routing, configure network services and apply basic security controls.
The course also develops professional skills in network documentation, configuration management, troubleshooting methodology and network performance monitoring. By the end of the course, learners should be able to design basic networks, configure Cisco networking devices, troubleshoot connectivity problems and apply appropriate networking and security practices in small and medium-sized network environments.
