Cisco CCNA 2 — Working at a Small-to-Medium Business or ISP
In Cisco CCNA 2, I studied addressing, network-device configuration, routing, upgrade planning and troubleshooting in small-to-medium business and ISP environments.
Cisco CCNA 2 moved my networking studies from basic connectivity to small-to-medium business and ISP environments. I worked through addressing structures, device configuration, routing and network-upgrade planning together with help-desk and troubleshooting responsibilities.
The course covered:
- Understanding Addressing Structures
- Configuring Network Devices
- Planning a Network Upgrade
- The Internet and Its Uses
- Troubleshooting
- ISP Services
- ISP Responsibilities
- Help Desk
- Routing
This stage helped me view a network as an operated service infrastructure whose changes, faults and capacity have to be managed rather than as a collection of connected endpoints.
