CISCO
CCNA Internetworking Fundamentals
CSCO 120
4.00
Prerequisite: None
Prerequisite: Strongly recommend minimum ACCUPLACER Reading Comprehension score of 74. This course introduces the
architecture, structure, functions, components, and models of the Internet and other computer networks. It uses the OSI and TCP layered
models to examine the nature and roles of protocols and services at the application, network, data link, and physical layers. The principles
and structure of IP addressing and the fundamentals of Ethernet concepts, media, and operations are introduced.
CCNA Routing Protocols and Concepts
CSCO 121

Prerequisite: CSCO 120 with a grade of "C" or better.
LAN Switching and Wireless Fundamentals is part of the CCNA curriculum. This course helps students develop an in-depth understanding
of how switches operate and are implemented in the LAN environment for small and large networks. Beginning with a foundational
overview of Ethernet, this course provides detailed explanations of LAN switch operation, VLAN implementation, Rapid Spanning Tree
Protocol (RSTP), VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP), Inter-VLAN routing, and wireless network operation. Students analyze, configure,
verify, and troubleshoot VLANs, RSTP, VTP, and wireless networks. Campus Network design and Layer 3 switching concepts are
introduced.
