Mastering Cisco Labs with Cisco Packet Tracer

About this course

Cisco Packet Tracer is a network simulator that can be utilized in training for Network certifications such as CompTia Network+ and Cisco CCNA Certification Exams. The software allows students to create virtual networks with many different networking devices from switches, routers, end user devices and even systems integration devices such as security cameras, motion sensors, lights, and alarms.You will LEARN BY DOING which is absolutely the best way to learn networking. We will not only thoroughly go over the Cisco Packet tracer Application but I will also give you the opportunity to follow along with me and build some simple Switching and Routing Labs, and we will briefly discuss some networking fundamentals so you understand what is it we are building!We will make use of certain components for the proper implementation of the network. We'll be explaining how to include routers, switches, computers, and transmission media, and how to bind them together with the help of protocols to enable successful communication between them.In addition to traditional networking labs, I will also show you how to set up a lab for any of you System Integrations folks joining this course so you can take full advantage of this powerful application.This course will introduce the students to the basic handling and functioning of Cisco networking components and their simulated behavior's in a real network.

Course objectives

• introduce the basic handling of Cisco networking components
