IUWNE: Implementing Unified Wireless Networking Essentials
This is a 5 day, instructor-led course.
The Implementing Cisco Unified Networking Essentials is a five day course, designed to help students prepare for the CCNA Wireless certification,an associate level certification specialising in the wireless field. The goal of IUWNE is to provide students with the information and practice activities necessary to prepare them for designing, installing, configuring, monitoring and conducting basic troubleshooting tasks on a Cisco WLAN in SMB and Enterprise installations. This is an associate level course and as such aims to provide only entry level information, and does not specialise in any of the advanced features of the Cisco WLAN networks solutions.
Upon successful completion of this course, students will have the skills necessary to:
• Describe the fundamentals of wireless networks
• Install a Cisco Unified Wireless Network
• Describe and configure a basic wireless client using either the default operating system or Cisco Wireless LAN (WLAN) adapter configuration utilities
• Configure wireless security
• Manage the wireless network with Cisco WCS
• Maintain and troubleshoot a wireless network
The primary audience is those individuals interested in gaining an overview of a Cisco WLAN and the technologies that can be deployed within that Network. It is an ideal course for those that are new to wireless and are looking to gain the 1st level of wireless certification.
