Layer 2 Switching & VLAN’s for Cisco CCNA

This course is geared for Cisco’s, CCNA (200-120) certification exam. It will cover the Switching portion of the CCNA.

This course is several hours in length and will cover Layer 2 switching in detail. I will explain the Technology and media access control method for Ethernet networks, network segmentation, switching concepts and the operation of Cisco switches.

DISCLAIMER:Please note that the simulators/emulators used in this course are not part of the course. It is the students responsibility to have these to practice with. The Cisco Packet Tracer and/or VIRAL (Virtual Internet Routing Lab) are Cisco proprietary software and can only be obtained through Cisco. It is up to each student to obtain the simulator/emulator of their choice to study along with this course.

Students will get a thorough understanding of switching and how we would implement it in a real world environment.

We will discuss the following concepts switching services and rules we should follow when segmenting networks. We will also compare bridging vs. LAN switching focusing in great detail on the Spanning-tree protocol. We will look at the switch Functions at layer two, such as how a switch learns about the nodes on the network and how it makes its decisions to forward the information and most definitely how to secure our ports on the switches.

Once get an understanding of how switches work and their administrative configurations we will then go into explain and creating vlans and inter-vlan connectivity and what would be the benefits of using VLANs on our network. You will learn the different port types and encapsulation methods we use when using vlans, and will fully understand the difference between trunking a port and the VTP protocol.

This is a lecture based course using the Touch-IT Technology Smart board, which will make learning very interactive and engaging. Hands on labs will be used to drill down the concepts learned in each lecture using Cisco’s Packet Tracer.

My method will make you feel like you are sitting in a classroom environment and give the most needed hands on experience!

Handouts will be available to facilitate learning and practice.

This course will help the student become familiar with layer 2 switching and vlans and how to implement them in your environment…but it will also help in preparing for any networking certification or Computer Science Degree; not to mention the fact that for those already in the field, it will further improve routing decisions in their particular networks.

 

Your Instructor

Lazaro (Laz) Diaz

This can be the year to achieve your goals if you are serious about your certs!

If you are determined, ambitious and hungry for a new beginning…then this should be your year

…and how better to start or end the year than to get an IT Certification…Especially a Cisco CCNA, CCNP, Microsoft or a Network+ certification.

Whether you are interested in the CCNA, the CCNP, Network+ or you just want to understand the key topics for these, taking one or ALL my courses, will get you a lot closer to that goal.

But, don’t take my word for it…please look at the FREE previews (they are available in all my courses) and see for yourself.

However, keep in mind that I’m also an author and you can find my books on AMAZON by searching under Lazaro Diaz.

NOW…what you wanted to know about me but were afraid to ask:

If you are tired of the same old methods of learning and want someone that is pretty much unconventional, but at the same time will provide you with an enjoyable learning experience in layman’s terms…then please preview my courses and you will discover that I am your guy.

I am a Network Engineer with almost two (2) decades in the field and the teaching industry.

So, if anyone can get you certified it’s me!

My teaching experience stems from teaching at institutions like Palm Beach Community College, New Horizons, Florida Career College (now Anthem College) and The Academy of South Florida.

However, here in GlobED.net, I bring the classroom to you.

Courtesy of the internet, I have been teaching students from all over the world and all walks of life…. thank goodness for technology 😉

Having been on all sides of the spectrum; as a student, a teacher/trainer, and in the field, I believe this uniquely qualifies me to understand you.

I know firsthand what you have been exposed to as opposed to what you really want to accomplish. These two are sometimes extremely conflicting and frustrating. That is why I teach in the manner I do and can relate to your rejection of the Status Quo.

Because I also do private contracting, I have extensive experience in helping and/or teaching corporate employees at Miami Dade County employees, MetroPCS (now T-Mobile), The Florida Marlins, Ulysse Nardin, Alberta Water Department (Canada), The Assurant Group, The US Airforce, Hospital personnel & Attorney’s firms. I’ve guided them to be able to acquire their IT certifications or general knowledge in IT and Networking.

However, my expertise also extends to being able to teach applications as well. YES…I am also an application instructor and qualified to teach Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Access. This, of course, includes the MOS (Microsoft Office Specialist) certification.

As you can see, I am a multifaceted person and consider myself to be an eternal student as well.

Remember that I too must keep up with technology since these changes seem to be daily, if not hourly.

I teach in an unconventional way that allows students to understand the subject matter and can, therefore, not only prepare them for a Cisco certification exam but help them apply my methods in the real world.

I strive to give the student a greater opportunity to be able to compete in the current job markets.

Do I go above and beyond what is needed for a certification?…YES, I do…because it’s not only about getting a certification, but it’s also about making sure that you, the student, are prepared for a job interview and/or maintaining your current job by enhancing your skills.

This is where I step in and make sure that you are prepared for whatever comes your way and make you become an asset to your employer.

Everyone has different requirements and I make sure, or at least I try, to provide information for most scenarios.

My classes and/or courses are very simple and that’s how I like to teach. I truly believe in “KISS“…NO, I don’t want to kiss you…this means “keep it simple stupid” –

If things are kept simple, easily explained in a way that the student can grasp quickly and retain the information…then I have achieved my goal.

For those that do not know me yet, you may not be used to my style of teaching, but you will soon get accustomed to it 🙂

I’m very laid back, I try to make learning fun and I teach in layman’s terms…no physics jargon or mumbo jumbo in my teachings.

My courses are very interactive and extremely dynamic…you will not find my lectures monotone or boring, because falling asleep, for lack of excitement, is just NOT an option and NOT who I am.

Need convincing?

Then just look for yourself at my video previews, which I always provide on ALL my courses. Therefore, you can then determine if I’m the right guy to help you get your industry-specific certifications.

I certainly hope that after a careful review of my credentials & testimonials (you can Google me you know) …and see if I’m the Cisco Instructor you’re looking for!
