NWK525 - Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNAv7) Certificate

Course Description

CCNAv7 Introduction to Networks (ITN)

The Introduction to Networks (ITN) course introduces students to networking architectures, models, protocols, and components. These components facilitate the connection of users, devices, applications, and data through the internet and across modern computer networks. By the end of the course, students can perform basic configurations for routers and switches to build simple local area networks (LANs) that integrate IP addressing schemes and foundational network security.

CCNAv7 Switching, Routing and Wireless Essentials (SRWE)

The Switching, Routing, and Wireless Essentials (SRWE) course is the second course in the CCNAv7 curriculum. This course focuses on switching technologies and router operations that support small-to-medium business networks. It includes wireless local area networks (WLANs) and security concepts. Students learn key switching and routing concepts. They can perform basic network configuration and troubleshooting, identify and mitigate LAN security threats, and configure and secure a basic WLAN.

CCNAv7 Enterprise Networking, Security, and Automation (ENSA)

The Enterprise Networking, Security, and Automation (ENSA) course is the third course in the CCNAv7 curriculum. This course describes the architectures and considerations related to designing, securing, operating, and troubleshooting enterprise networks. This course covers wide area network (WAN) technologies and quality of service (QoS) mechanisms used for secure remote access. It also introduces software-defined networking, virtualization, and automation concepts that support the digitalization of networks. Students gain skills to configure and troubleshoot enterprise networks and learn to identify and protect against cybersecurity threats. They are introduced to network management tools and learn key concepts of software-defined networking, including controller-based architectures and how application programming interfaces (APIs) enable network automation.
