Cisco - CCNA Boot Camp - Routing and Switching (CCNAX)
Overview
This certification retired on 24th February 2020. Our closest replacement is CCNA.
On this 5-day accelerated CCNAX course you’ll learn both Interconnecting Cisco Networking Devices Parts 1 and 2 (ICND1 & ICND2).
You’ll learn to install, operate, configure and verify a basic IPv4 and IPv6 network, including:
- Configuring a LAN switch
- Configuring an IP router
- Connecting to a WAN
- Identifying basic security threats
You’ll also get familiar with more in-depth topics such as how to install, operate and troubleshoot a medium-sized network, including connecting to a WAN and implementing network security.
On this course, you’ll benefit from our unique Lecture | Lab | Review approach that combines both theoretical and practical learning. This will help accelerate your learning and ensure you have the hands-on experience necessary to apply your new found knowledge as soon as you return to work.
You’ll also get 24/7 access to practice labs, official Cisco curriculum and real Cisco networking equipment.
The CCNAX course differs from the CCNA Routing & Switching course in that it combines and shortens the ICND1 and ICND2 curriculum and requires that you only take the 200-125 CCNA examination. Achieving this will result in the CCNA Routing and Switching certification. You’ll sit this exam, covered by your Certification Guarantee, just steps from your classroom.

"It is a very hard training and I don't think it's suitable for complete beginners in networking.
Our instructor was very competent and the location was excellent."
Christian Dietrich. (4/12/2017 (Monday) to 10/12/2017 (Sunday))
"It was a hard but good course - a lot of information and a good teacher. We did a lot of practical work and it was nice to see the output of all the theoretical knowledge out of the book. "
