CISS 213 CISCO Networking 1*
The CCNA Routing and Switching introductory courses introduce the architecture, structure, functions, components, and models of the Intenet and other computer networks. The principles and structure of IP addressing and the fundamentals of Ethernet concepts, media, and operations are introduced to provide a foundation for the curriculum. By the end of either course, students will be able to build simple Lan, perform basic configurations for routers and switches, and implement IP addressing schemes.
