Routers and Routing Basics
(CCNA Track Semester Two)
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
This course focuses on initial router configuration, Cisco IOS (internetwork operating system) Software management, routing protocol configuration, TCP/IP, and access control lists (ACLs). Students will develop skills on how to configure a router, manage Cisco IOS Software, configure routing protocol on routers, and set the access lists to control the access to routers. Skills will be learned through on line curriculum and testing, and use of hands on equipment and through the use of network configuration simulation software.
Prerequisites: CST1700 or ELEC1700, CST/MMDT 1001 is recommended
(2 credits) (1 C/lecture, 1 C/lab)

COURSE REQUIREMENTS
Class and lab attendance is mandatory. Absences totaling two class weeks is considered excessive and is grounds for being dropped. (Three late attendances are considered an absence.) No make-up tests will be given except in emergency situations. If you need to miss a class you need to email the instructor before class so it is an excused absence.
An average student will spend 150 hours performing course tasks: About 68 hours in class room instruction and working on assigned tasks in the lab, and about 82 hours out-of-class studying and performing assigned lab projects. The student is expected to contact the instructor if difficulty is encountered or if help is needed.
