Salient Features

INDUSTRIAL FOCUS:

Our emphasis on practical learning will ensure that you are well prepared for a career as an effective network security professional. The Program validates the ability to install, operate and troubleshoot a small enterprise branch network, including basic network security. The curriculum covers networking fundamentals, WAN technologies, basic security and wireless concepts, routing and switching fundamentals, and configuring simple networks, medium-size enterprise branch networks with more complex connections. 

The course will provide a practical hands-on Cisco Routers and Cisco Switches, as no WAN setup is complete without Leased Line/ Wireless /VSAT / DSL etc., and Telecom devices like CSU / DSU, Telco MUX will also be covered in the Practical setup. The training will be provided by Senior Network/ WAN engineers with several years of field experience. The Pro-gram is also appropriate for those who are ready to advance their skills and work independently on complex network solutions.
