Indicative Content |
Dynamic Routing (20%)
Describe dynamic routing protocol features and characteristics (OSPF, RIP). Explain how single-area OSPF operates. Explain concepts for OSPF routing such as; Router IDs, Point-to-Point networks, Multiaccess networks, Default Route Propagation. Configure and verify single-area OSPF.
|
IP Services and Security (40%):
Configure and verify IP addresses using address assignment technologies (e.g. DHCP, NAT), Analysis, specify and apply Access Control Lists (ACLs)(e.g. named ACLs, numbered ACLs, standard ACLs, extended ACLs), Design, configure and verify Network Address Translation (NAT) for a given network (e.g. Static NAT, Dynamic NAT, PAT)
|
WAN technologies and protocols (20%):
Examine access network and core network function and technologies (e.g. DSL, cable, PPPoE, HFC and MPLS)
|
Virtual Private Networks (20%):
VPNs, site-to-site GRE tunnels, IPsec, remote access VPNs.
