Hands on Cisco Modeling Labs: Switching Fundamentals

Description

Unlock the full potential of Cisco Modeling Labs (CML) in this hands-on course, Hands-On Cisco Modeling Labs: Switching Fundamentals. Whether you’re new to networking or looking to sharpen your skills, this course will immerse you in practical, real-world switching configurations and concepts using one of the most powerful tools available.

Cisco Modeling Labs (CML) is professional-grade, paid software designed by Cisco for creating, testing, and simulating complex network topologies. Unlike Packet Tracer or GNS3, CML uses real Cisco images, giving you access to the exact same software that runs on Cisco hardware. However, you don’t need to worry if you’re not ready to invest in the software just yet! In this course, I’ll also show you how to access Cisco CML for free using the Cisco DevNet Sandbox, which allows you to use CML for up to four hours at a time at no cost.

This course is designed to be lab-heavy and practical. We’ll skip most of the theory and dive straight into configuring network switches, spanning tree protocols, VLANs, trunking, and other essential switching topics. You’ll work through real-world examples and scenarios using CML, gaining hands-on experience that’s invaluable for certification preparation or day-to-day work in network engineering.

By the end of the course, you’ll have a strong grasp of switching fundamentals, along with the confidence to apply what you’ve learned in real-world environments. You’ll also be equipped with the knowledge and skills to continue exploring advanced configurations using Cisco Modeling Labs.

Join us to take your networking skills to the next level with hands-on labs and real-world configurations using Cisco’s powerful simulation tool!
