FCNCMRK - Foundation of the Corporate Network - Building a small network using Cisco Meraki
Participants will learn how to configure Meraki equipment for enterprise network. Starting with creating an account of Meraki Dashboard, they make Organization, Network, and set actual Meraki equipment such as cabling, VLAN setting, routing setting, wireless LAN construction, firewall setting and VPN setting. By interactive lectures and exercises, they can quickly but steadily learn the contents of the lecture with physical machine exercises. With the useful skills earned, they can utilize it in the field after the training. In addition, as our instructor explain not only configure each device but also fundamental knowledge of the network, they can systematically learn the whole network using switch, router, access point and firewall.
