A CCNA course is a synonym of the knowledge and skills accrediting the IT personnel. CCNA has a reputation as one of the most valuable entry-level certifications in the computing industry. Cisco’s CCNA certification proves that you have a firm foundation in the most important components of the Cisco product line-namely, routers and switches. It also proves that you have a broad knowledge of protocols like RIP, IGRP, EIGRP, OSPF, IP and networking technologies.

The Cisco CCNA network associate certification validates the ability to install, configure, operate, and troubleshoot medium-size routed and switched networks, including implementation and verification of connections to remote sites in a WAN. This new curriculum includes basic mitigation of security threats, introduction to wireless networking concepts and terminology, and performance-based skills. This new curriculum also includes (but is not limited to) the use of these protocols: IP, Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP), Serial Line Interface Protocol ,Frame Relay, Routing Information Protocol Version 2 (RIPv2),VLANs, Ethernet, access control lists (ACLs)
