1 Designing for Cisco Internetwork Solutions Course DESGN v2.1; 5 Days, Instructor-led Course Description: Designing for Cisco Internetwork Solutions (DESGN) v2.1 is an instructor-led course presented by Cisco Systems, Inc., training partners. This five-day course will enable learners to gather customer internetworking requirements, identify solutions, and design the network infrastructure and elements to ensure the basic functionality of the proposed solutions. The purpose of this course is to provide learners with the knowledge and skills to achieve associate-level competency in network design. The DESGN course is the first course in a design curriculum that supports the design certification track. The course focuses on the technology and methods currently available. Course Objectives: Upon completing this course, the student will be able to meet these overall objectives: Discuss methodology in network design Describe how to structure and modularize the network design using the Cisco Network Architectures for the Enterprise Design the enterprise campus, and describe the architectural approach to the data center and virtualization market Design the enterprise edge and remote modules as needed Design a network addressing plan and select suitable routing protocols for a given network design Evaluate security solutions for the network Discuss voice and video networking considerations in the enterprise network design Recommend a design for a basic wireless solution Prerequisites: The knowledge and skills that a learner must have before attending this course are as follows: Cisco CCNA level of knowledge and Implementing Cisco IP Switched Networks (SWITCH) level of knowledge are strongly recommended for students attending the DESGN course. Who Should Attend: The primary audience for this course is as follows: Individuals seeking the Cisco CCDA certification Individuals seeking the Cisco CCDP certification The secondary audience for this course is as follows:

2 Presales and post-sales network engineers who are involved in enterprise network design, planning, and implementation. (Post-sales network engineers who are involved in the implementation will be involved in providing feedback to the presales network engineers and correct possible design flaws.)
