2

Ethernet switching enables devices such as computers and printers to communicate seamlessly with each other on the same network.

 

In this course, you'll learn about key switching features. You’ll also explore different port configurations, how Address Resolution Protocol works, and examine key features of the Neighbor Discovery Protocol.

 

You’ll also explore how to install and configure the appropriate wireless technologies and standards and learn how to differentiate between 802.11 standards and recognize when to implement 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wireless frequencies. You’ll also learn when to deploy a service set identifier as well as basic service sets, the extended service set, independent basic service set (Ad-hoc), and roaming. Lastly, you’ll learn about wireless encryption standards, cellular technologies, multiple-input multiple-output, and multi-user MIMO.

 

Course Highlights

Outline the characteristics and purpose of port configurations including port tagging, port aggregation, duplex, speed, flow control, port mirroring, port security, jumbo frames, and auto-medium-dependent interface crossover (MDI-X).
Outline the purpose and features of using media access control (MAC) address tables on Ethernet switches.
Differentiate between Power over Ethernet (PoE) and Power over Ethernet plus (PoE+).
Outline the purpose and characteristics of the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP).
Describe carrier-sense multiple access with collision detection (CSMA/CD).
Outline the purpose and features of using Address Resolution Protocol (ARP).
Outline key features of the Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP).
Differentiate between 802.11 standards including a, b, g, n, ac, and ax.
Recognize when to implement 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wireless frequencies.
Outline the purpose and key features of Wi-Fi channels and recognize their respective regulatory impacts.
Describe channel bonding use cases.
Recognize when to deploy the service set identifier (SSID) and basic service sets, extended service set, independent basic service set (ad-hoc), and roaming.
Recognize key differences between omni and directional antenna types.
Outline the purpose and features of encryption standards including Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA), WPA2 Personal, Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP), and WPA/WPA2 Enterprise (AES/TKIP).
Outline the purpose and features of key cellular technologies including code-division multiple access (CDMA), Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM), Long-Term Evolution (LTE), as well as 3G, 4G, and 5G.
Describe the multiple input, multiple output (MIMO), and multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) wireless standards.
