CISCO - CCDA

Description

The Cisco Certified Design Associate (CCDA) certification indicates foundation level knowledge of design for small office/home office networks. In the Cisco CCDA training course from LearnKey, expert instructor Michael Storm takes you through exam topics including assessing client needs, designing a network structure, addressing internetworking issues, LAN and WAN technologies, and network management. At the conclusion of this course, you’ll be prepared to pass the Designing Cisco Networks exam 640-441. Updated to cover 640-861 DESGN
