CNE 243 CCNA 3: Enterprise Networking, Security & Automation (5 credits)
Prerequisite CNE 242 with grade of 2.0 or better, or instructor permission.
Course Description
This is the third of a three-course sequence designed to prepare students for the Cisco CCNA certification. 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.
Course Content
1. Single-Area OSPFv2 Concepts
2. Single-Area OSPFv2 Configuration
3. Network Security Concepts
4. ACL Concepts
5. ACLs for IPv4 Configuration
6. NAT for IPv4
7. WAN Concepts
8. VPN and IPsec Concepts
9. QoS Concepts
10. Network Management
11. Network Design
12. Network Troubleshooting
13. Network Virtualization
14. Network Automation
Student Outcomes
Students will meet the objectives set by the current CCNA standards: Configure single-area OSPFv2 in both point-to-point and multi-access networks. Explain how to mitigate threats and enhance network security using access control lists and security best practices. Implement standard IPv4 ACLs to filter traffic and secure administrative access. Configure NAT services on the edge router to provide IPv4 address scalability. Explain techniques to provide address scalability and secure remote access for WANs. Explain how to optimize, monitor, and troubleshoot scalable network architectures. Explain how networking devices implement QoS. Implement protocols to manage the network. Explain how technologies such as virtualization, software defined networking, and automation affect evolving networks.
Degree Outcomes
Program Outcome: Students will demonstrate ability to provide and implement adequate security measures for PCs and networks. Critical, Creative and Reflective Thinking: Graduates will evaluate, analyze and synthesize information and ideas in order to construct informed, meaningful and justifiable conclusions.
