Given enterprise business and technical requirements and constraints, the student will learn how to perform the conceptual and intermediate design of a network infrastructure that supports the desired network solutions over intelligent network services, to achieve effective performance, scalability, and availability.The student will learn the fundamental aspects of the network design addressing QoS, Security, Network Management, fine-tuning Routing Protocols, Switching Structures, and IP Multicast. In addition, the student will leave with Solution Models for solutions and aspects of the network that are strategic to today's Cisco's Customers: Voice over IP and IP Telephony and Wireless Networking.

You will learn:

• Present the Cisco® Architecture for Voice, Vide and Integrated Data (AVVID) framework, its segmentation of the network infrastructure, as well as intelligent network services to support key enterprise network applications and network solutions
• Design Enterprise Campus and Enterprise Edge network infrastructures for effective functionality, performance, scalability, and availability, given specified enterprise network needs
• Design security, network management, QoS, high availability, and IP multicast intelligent network services for performance, scalability, and availability, given specified enterprise network needs
• Design enterprise solutions for virtual private networks, wireless networks, IP telephony, content networking, and storage networking, given enterprise network needs
• Present enterprise network designs for small, medium, and large enterprises, showing how the design meets enterprise needs for effective performance, scalability, and availability

Recommended for:

• Employees
• Customers
• Channel Partners/Resellers

Prerequisites:

Before taking ARCH course, learners should be familiar with internetworking technologies, Cisco® products, and IOS® features. Specifically, learners should be able to do the following before attending:

• Design the necessary services to extend IP addresses using VLSM and route summarization Implement appropriate networking routing protocols such as OSPF, EIGRP, and BGP on an existing internetwork
• Redistribute routes between different routing protocols
• Select the required Cisco® products and services that enable connectivity and traffic transport for a multilayer campus network
• Select the necessary services at each layer of the network to all users to obtain membership in multicast groups in a working enterprise network
• Control network traffic by implementing the necessary admission policy at each layer of the network topology, given a working enterprise network
• Identify the appropriate Cisco® products for a given set of WAN technology requirements, including permanent or dialup
