1 coursemonster.com/uk Certified Wireless Network Administrator Overview This new market-leading course from us delivers the best in Wireless LAN training, combining the benefits of: Certified Wireless Network Administrator (CWNA) training Preparation for CWNA certification Training in Cisco Wireless LAN Fundamentals Training on Cisco Aironet Autonomous Wireless products Training on Cisco Unified Wireless products Preparation for CWLF-related Cisco Wireless exams Training in Advanced Site Survey tools and techniques Hands-on with AirMagnet Surveyor Hands-on with Ekahau Site Survey This latest-edition course provides a comprehensive hands-on practical coverage of IEEE WLAN technologies. The course provides expert guidance on Wireless LAN site survey, product selection, equipment installation, wireless network configuration, support, WLAN site survey, wireless LAN security and troubleshooting. The course combines the lecture modules and hands-on lab exercises from the Certrified Wireless Network Administrator (CWNA) course with additional material, lecture modules and labs which cover the Cisco Aironet Wireless LANs and Wireless Site Survey curriculum (including Aironet Wireless LAN Fundamentals [AWLF] plus Cisco Aironet Wireless Site Survey [CAWS]). Delegates learn about the latest innovations and developments across the complete range of wireless LAN industry vendors. Audience In this hands-on course, you will gain a full understanding of how radio frequency affects networking so you can perform site surveys, design a high-performance network, and protect both users and sensitive data from potential intruders. Plus, you will explore advanced topics such as VoWLAN deployments, seamless mobile connectivity, and detailed wireless frame analysis. You will use enterprise-class hardware and software tools during live lab exercises, simulating a state-of-the-art production environment Skills Gained Radio frequency properties, behaviors, and regulations, and how they affect networking Wireless standards, including extensions a, b, g, and n General troubleshooting tips to common real-world n issues General parameters for performing a successful site survey, along with software tools that reduce time and expense Device-level Wi-Fi communications processes Why n networks operate the way they do and how to apply that knowledge when faced with problems that stump most network administrators Using wireless network analyzers to capture live data and pinpoint potential network issues How using radio frequency makes wireless networks vulnerable Most common wireless threats and how to detect and defend against them Wireless security standards for keeping unauthorized users out and maintaining wireless data privacy Applying WPA2 security standards, including 802.1X/EAP and AES, along with the devices used to apply them Wireless intrusion detection and why it's essential for maintaining a secure network
