  • How to configure and verify advanced Cisco Switching technologies

Course content

4 sections26 lectures3h 56m total length
  • SDM Templates6:12

    Learn how to configure and verify Cisco SDM templates to optimize switch resources for routing, policy-based routing, and IPv6, and understand how to apply and reboot for the new template.

  • Managing MAC address table6:04

    Learn to manage the MAC address table on a switch, including static and dynamic entries. Understand 300-second aging timer and use commands like show mac address-table and mac address-table static.

  • Troubleshooting Err-disable Recovery4:05

    Learn to troubleshoot err-disable and air-disable states by using show air disable detect and show air disable recovery, enable recovery for specific conditions, and adjust the recovery interval.

  • CDP & LLDP7:29

    Explore configuring and verifying layer 2 discovery protocols CDP and LLDP to identify devices on switch ports, compare Cisco CDP with LLDP, and control enablement and information sharing.

  • UDLD2:40

    Learn how udld detects unidirectional links on switch ports to prevent loops, using normal mode for logging or aggressive mode to disable the port.

  • VLANs5:54

    Configure and verify data and voice VLANs on a 2960 switch, assign access ports, tag phone traffic, and test inter-device connectivity with ping in Packet Tracer.

  • Trunks8:54

    Configure and verify trunking between switches using dynamic auto or desirable DTP and static trunking, carrying VLANs. Test connectivity and verify trunk status with show interface trunk.

  • VTP18:31

    Explore VTP versions 1 through 3, focusing on the master server model and the primary server role, with pruning to dynamically control LAN propagation across a Cisco switch domain.

  • EtherChannels27:34

    Learn to configure and verify ether channels, including layer 2 and layer 3 port channels, using mode on, LCP, and Pagpag, with compatibility checks, load balancing, and misconfiguration guard.

  • PVST+, RPVST+, MST12:18

    Configure and verify spanning tree using the mist protocol, define a region and map lands to instances to save resources, and compare MST and rapid spanning tree with PVST.

  • Switch priority, port priority, path cost, STP timers16:34

    Master spanning-tree fundamentals by configuring switch priorities, port priorities, and path costs, and verify root and route ports with show commands in a lab topology.

  • PortFast, BPDUguard, BPDUfilter8:13

    Configure port fast on edge access ports to speed the forwarding state, enable BPDU guard and BPDU filter to protect the topology, and verify with show spanning tree detail.

  • Loopguard and Rootguard4:14

    Learn how loop guard prevents spanning-tree loops by blocking a port when BPDU messages stop, and how root guard blocks ports that try to become root, per spanning tree.

  • SPAN & RSPAN6:08

    Configure and verify span and rspan to capture switch traffic for analysis with Wireshark, by defining local span sessions and remote span sessions across vlans.

  • Chassis virtualization and aggregation technologies5:26

    Learn how Cisco chassis virtualization and aggregation achieve switch and chassis redundancy, high bandwidth stack connections, and unified management through stack-wise and chassis aggregation commands.

  • Layer 2 Technologies

Requirements

  • CCNA Level Experience
  • Computer with Internet Access

Student Feedback

-"This is my 3rd course. I have passed CCNA using Matt's course before. Matt's teaching style is awesome. He does not waste time and does really hit the exam points. Sometimes I have to watch the same short videos to understand somethings thoroughly but Its ok because Matt videos are like 10 mins long. I would rather watch 10 min long video many times than watch a 50 min long video to understand something. Overall, I love this course as I love all the other ones. Take this course if you don't want to waste time. I highly highly recommend it! "
