Revised CCNP Curriculum and Exams
Cisco has redesigned the CCNP courses and exams to reflect the evolving job tasks of global network professionals.
Course 1 ROUTE v1.0 Implementing Cisco IP Routing is a five-day instructor-led course in which network professionals learn to plan, configure, and verify the implementation of complex enterprise LAN and WAN routing solutions, using a range of routing protocols. ROUTE v1.0 also covers configuration of secure routing solutions to support branch offices and mobile workers. The course includes more than seven hours of e-learning lessons and demos that students can absorb at their own pace.
Course 2 SWITCH v1.0 Implementing Cisco IP Switched Networks is a five-day instructor-led course in which network professionals will learn to plan, configure, and verify the implementation of complex enterprise switching solutions, using Cisco Enterprise Campus Architecture. SWITCH v1.0 also covers secure integration of VLANs, WLANs, voice, and video into campus networks.
Course 3 TSHOOT v1.0 Troubleshooting and Maintaining Cisco IP Networks is a five-day instructor-led course in which network professionals learn to (1) plan and perform regular maintenance on complex enterprise routed and switched networks, and (2) use technology-based practices and a systematic ITIL-compliant approach to perform network troubleshooting. Extensive labs provide hands-on learning and reinforce troubleshooting skills. The course includes more than nine hours of e-learning lessons and demos that students can absorb at their own pace.Learn the advanced routing skills you need to provide scalability for Cisco routers that are connected to LANs and WANs as part of a medium-to-large network site. You will learn how to dramatically increase the number of routers and sites using EIGRP and OSPF techniques, instead of redesigning the network when additional sites or configurations are added.
This Course 2 SWITCH v1.0 Implementing Cisco IP Switched Networks includes extensive hands-on labs to help you learn to plan, configure, and verify the implementation of complex enterprise switching solutions for campus environments using the Cisco Enterprise Campus Architecture. In order to gain a firm understanding of how to manage switches in an enterprise campus environment, you'll cover VLANs and WLANs, Spanning tree, Inter-VLAN routing Security features and many study aides and materials to pass your exam.
Network engineers with at least one year of professional work experience who are ready to advance their skills and work independently on complex network solutions

CCNA certification
OR
Familiarity with internetworking technologies the ability to perform basic router configuration experience installing, operating, and maintaining routers and switches in an enterprise environment
Knowledge of IP, including the ability to perform IP subnetting on non-octal boundaries, configure IP standard and extended access lists, operate and configure distance vector routing protocol, configure serial interface, and interpret a routing table
Instructor-Led with numerous Hands-On labs and exercises.
BTS always provides equipment to have a very successful Hands-On course. BTS also encourages all attendees to bring their own equipment to the course. This will provide attendees the opportunity to incorporate their own gear into the labs and gain valuable training using their specific equipment.
