CCNA — IP Services and Security
About Course
The fourth and final stage of the CCNA track, this paid module takes you beyond routing and switching into the IP services that keep an enterprise network running every day: ACL filtering, automatic addressing with DHCP, NAT/PAT translation, NTP time synchronisation, Syslog logging and HSRP gateway redundancy.
Every concept comes with hands-on labs you can reproduce in Packet Tracer or on real Cisco IOS hardware. You will finish with an introduction to network automation and programmability (REST APIs, controllers), your gateway into software-driven networking. By the end of this course you will be able to secure, troubleshoot and harden the IP services of a production infrastructure.
Intermediate level — prerequisites: CCNA modules 1 to 3 (networking basics, switching, routing).
