CCNP All-in-1 Video Boot Camp With Chris Bryant

Explore dynamic vlan fundamentals and vlan membership policy (vmp) to auto adjust ports as hosts move, using show vlan id and mark and drag techniques for quick verification.

Explain vlan 9 trunking fundamentals, including dynamic modes and 802.1Q vs ISL encapsulation, and how negotiation works with DTP. Emphasize disabling DTP and using unconditional trunking for security.

Explore dynamic trunking protocol (DTP) concepts in VLAN 10, verifying port-level DTP status with show interface and filtering, then disable DTP on a port range and confirm trunks remain up.

Conclude the DTP lab on sw2 by configuring unconditional trunking, turning off DTP negotiation, and verifying trunk status with show interface trunk, including relevant switchport mode trunk commands.

Configure voice VLANs on switch ports to prioritize voice traffic using trunk or access links, apply 802.1p tagging, and enable port fast to reduce jitter.

Explore how vtp domains and versions 1-3 enable scalable vlan management across switches, using trunk connections and case-sensitive domain names to automate vlan advertisements.

Learn how VTP config revision numbers drive advertisement processing, resolve ties with subset ads, and apply best practices to reset revisions and manage summary and subset advertisements.

Understand vlan trunking protocol version compatibility and the benefits of pruning, showing how version 3 supports the full vlan range and how pruning reduces broadcast, multicast, and unknown unicast traffic.

Explore how STP uses BPDU types and bids (priority and MAC), configuration BPDU use, and root bridge election to determine the network root.

Adjust STP path costs based on port speeds to influence spanning-tree routing, and observe how changing a port path cost triggers rapid transitions through listening, learning, and forwarding.

Master BPDU filter, BPDU guard, and loop guard in spanning tree, learn global and per-port enablement for portfast, and use show spanning summary to monitor port states.

Explore CST, MST, and PVST and how MST maps multiple VLANs to a single STP instance using regions, MSDE configuration, and a mapping table to optimize performance.

Learn how stackwise links up to nine switches into a single, master-led stack with one IP address, autoconfig, swift failover, and seamless capacity growth through the IOS image management.

Explore how HSRP elects the active router by priority (default 100) and preemption, with notes on the highest IP address rule and how to verify and adjust elections.

Explore GLBP AVG selection and AVF tracking by adjusting router priority with preemption and configuring interface tracking with weighting and thresholds to govern AVF eligibility.

Demonstrate error disable recovery in port security by simulating a port security violation, adjusting the timer, and recovering the port after enforcing three secure MAC addresses.

Learn to configure DHCP manual bindings by using client identifiers and MAC addresses, verify bindings in the DHCP binding table, and manage static addresses within dedicated pools.

Enable dhcp snooping to act as a firewall between hosts and untrusted dhcp servers. Classify interfaces as trusted or untrusted and extend the trust boundary with option 82.

Learn to use Cisco discovery protocol (CDP) to view neighbors and timers, enable or disable globally or per interface, compare versions, and consider LLDP for vendor-neutral discovery.
