Cisco CCNA 640-875 SPNGN1

Note: The exam associated with this course was retired. However, this course still retains value as a training resource.

This Cisco video training course with Jeremy Cioara covers networking concepts that are crucial to service provider architecture, including the OSI Model, switch and router functionality, IOS, network services, and more.

This CBT Nuggets Service Provider SPNGN1 course covers a broad set of information that needs to be known in order to pass the Service Provider SPNGN1 640-875 certification exam. You begin the course by understanding network fundamentals, discussing topics such as the OSI Model, switch and router functionality, and cabling standards. From there, you move quickly into understanding the differences between IOS and IOS-XR (Cisco’s service provider-specific OS), configuration of routing protocols in both IPv4 and IPv6, network services, and device management.

Unlike most other Cisco courses, there are no pre-requisites for the Service Provider SPNGN1 certification. However, this course does move faster than most because Cisco assumes most individuals aspiring to work in a service provider role have some previous background in a technology arena. In addition, Jeremy has created a “reduced schedule” of videos for those who have already completed the CCENT (ICND1) or CCNA Routing and Switching (ICND2) courses.
