Cisco Packet Tracer Network Simulator Introduction
Introduction to Cisco Packet Tracer for Cisco CCENT/CCNA and ComptTia Network+
Description
Cisco Packet Tracer is a network simulator that can be utilized in training for Network certifications such as CompTia Network+ and Cisco CCENT or CCNA Certification Exams. The software allows students to create virtual networks with many different networking devices from switches, routers, end user devices and even systems integration devices such as security cameras, motion sensors, lights, and alarms.
Like all of my courses - You will LEARN BY DOING which is absolutely the best way to learn networking. I will not only thoroughly go over the Cisco Packet tracer Application but I will also give you the opportunity to follow along with me and build some simple Switching and Routing Labs, and we will briefly discuss some networking fundamentals so you understand what is it we are building!
In addition to traditional networking labs, I will also show you how to set up a lab for any of you System Integrations folks joining this course so you can take full advantage of this powerful application.
Hope you enjoy!
