Optimizing Converged Cisco Networks (ONT) 1.0
Overview/Description
Optimizing Converged Cisco Networks (ONT) 1.0 course is highly
recommended for any individual responsible in any way for the
maintenance, operation, or troubleshooting of voice over IP (VoIP)
networks, where quality of service (QoS) is a design consideration.
Additionally, the ONT 1.0 course is targeted toward those
responsible for securing or managing wireless local area networks
(WLANs). This training is also recommended for individuals seeking
certification as a Cisco Certified Network Professional
(CCNP).
Exclusive Bonus - IP Subnetting Mini-Course
Many network administrators are baffled by the use of IP subnetting
and subnets. BCMSN includes a mini-course that will introduce the
concepts of IP subnetting and subnets. After reviewing this
mini-course learners will understand:
- Decimal to Binary conversion
- Classful IP addresses and Private IP address ranges
- How and why we use Subnetworks
- Calculating the number of Subnets and Hosts available using a
custom Subnet mask
- Calculating the Network number, broadcast address, and valid
range of host addresses when given an IP address and custom Subnet
mask
Target Audience
This course is designed for any individual seeking a basic
understanding of computer network IP subnetting, or non-technical
individuals who are seeking preparation for advanced technical
certification.
Prerequisites
The ONT 1.0 course focuses on the technology required for
optimizing networks. To fully benefit from this course, the student
