By Chris Bryant

CCIE #12933, CCNA, CCNP

 

Nearly 17 hours of expert instruction with real world examples of Cisco Networking, help you achieve the second half of the new CCNA exams (640-816 ICND2).

You will be tested on such topics as VLSM and IPv6 addressing; extending switched networks with VLANs; configuring, verifying and troubleshooting VLANs; the VTP, RSTP, OSPF and EIGRP protocols; determining IP routes; managing IP traffic with access lists; NAT and DHCP; establishing point-to-point connections; and establishing Frame Relay connections.

Acquiring your CCNA certification can be challenging. Cisco recognizes this and has responded with a 2-step solution. By essentially splitting the CCNA into 2 exams (CCENT & ICND2), you can give your brain a break and achieve your goals at your own pace. This course focuses on complete coverage of the 640-816 ICND2 exam.

"Am I Qualified To Take This Cisco ICND2 Course?"

YES! If you have a basic understanding of Cisco Routers and Switches, then this course can fill in any gaps and build an even stronger foundation for more advanced concepts.

YES! If you have Network+ Certification or on-the-job experience (but without certification), this course is for you.

Note: Cisco does not have prerequisites for CCNA exam, but to take the ICND2 you would need to take and pass the CCENT first.

What Our Loyal Students
Say About Our Training

"I highly recommend your products and I buy every new release that comes out."

I would like to say that I have had many “live” classes in everything from MCSE to CCNA and your classes are as good or better. You can play the CDs over and over or go back and review something that you did not really understand the first time.

I highly recommend your products and I buy every new release that comes out. Please keep up the great work!

Thanks,

"I just passed my CCNA 640-802 primarily by studying your Cisco CCNA course. (Chris Bryant is awesome!)"

First off, I want to say that I have a library of your products and I absolutely love all of them.  I just passed my CCNA 640-802 primarily by studying your Cisco CCNA course. (Chris Bryant is awesome!).

I cannot say enough good things about the quality of your products. Thank you again.

"Buying your product has
helped me understand more about Cisco products. I am
more comfortable dealing with routers more than ever..."

I bought your Cisco CCNA course to expand my I.T. skills and to get certified. I'm also a repeat customer.

Buying your product has helped me understand more about Cisco products. I am more comfortable dealing with routers more than ever.

Buying your CCNA product has greatly enhanced my overall  I.T. skills. Before buying your product, my skills were limited to Microsoft Products.

After taking your CCNA course, It gave me hands-on experience that I could not have received elsewhere. I can now say my I.T. skills not only covered Microsoft products, it also covers Cisco products which means better jobs and better salary.

Taking your CCNA course has also greatly enhanced my computer networking skills. I am now highly skilled in setting up LANS, VLANS and WANS.

I higly recommend your CCNA course to anyone. In fact, any Train Signal product I highly recommend. I have bought 5 or 6 courses from Train Signal already and I will continue to buy more products.

"This product has helped me tremendously and is still doing
so to this day..."

I purchased the product to further enhance my skills in my current position and to prepare for obtaining my CCNA certification.

This product has helped me tremendously and is still doing so to this day. I think the main reason is because I consider myself a visual learner and it helps tremendously to see the instructor performing examples while discussing the topic.

Additionally, I think the video for this course was great because the instructor did a great job presenting the 'basics.'

-Jason Phillip

"I recently took the 640-802 exam and passed. I feel more confident working on Cisco network devices..."

I purchased the CCNA course because I wanted to study to pass the exam, and also to improve hands on skills. The instructions from Chris Bryant are excellent - I have been able to answer any subnetting or VLSM questions right the first time.

The material was presented in such as way as to provide real life scenarios of what happens in networks, and sometimes even the slightest omissions could result in problems.

I recently took the 640-802 exam and passed. I feel more confident working on Cisco network devices.  I received a bonus for passing the exam. I look forward to starting on 642-901 soon, and plan on trying Chris Bryant's video training.

Also, as I look forward to a Professional certification, particularly for CCVP I have yet to find sources that offer CD training. I would like to be notified when course material becomes available.

Worth every penny.

"I'm confident that I will
pass my CCNA exam with
your CCNA Training..."

I like your delivery methods in that you can see straight away the output from the routers and switches. And I also like Chris's teaching method. Clear and concise and covers everything you need for Job, Exam success.

Regards

-Eamonn Kiely

"...Chris Bryant’s style of teaching is so good that I have decided to seek my CCIE in the not too distant future..."

My boss is impressed with my desire to master networking at a high level. Even before passing my exam my boss is giving me network tasks to perform that will serve to solidify my CCNA training.

My confidence level handling network related issues at the desktop has improved profoundly. Lastly, Chris Bryant’s style of teaching is so good that I have decided to seek my CCIE in the not too distant future.

-Tom Walke

"Everyone has a different method/style of learning best. If learning via self-paced method, then I would highly recommend Train Signal’s Cisco CCNA material..."

The main reason I purchased the Cisco CCNA was for gaining/improving hands-on skills but also for preparing for certification for  the Cisco CCNA.

I find your trainers and method of teaching to be effective in style and approach. I particularly like the fact that I can go back to individual modules to either brush up on something or learn something I may not have quite gotten the first time through.

I am currently studying for my CWNA exam of which I am using your TrainSignal material.  I have not yet scheduled an exam time for the CCNA, however I have already benefited from this material. I found the section on IP Addressing to be good refresher.

His method of explaining the ISO model I found to be well done as well. I am confident that it will help me achieve my goal towards the CCNA because it looks to have good coverage of the exam requirements, plus the trainer really does appear to know his stuff and explains it in an understandable way.

Everyone has a different method/style of learning best. If learning via self-paced method, then I would highly recommend TrainSignal’s Cisco CCNA material.

-Marlon Deerr

"I passed the CCNA test
on the first shot..."

Your courses are very good and I wanted to learn networking. I am not a good reader and would much rather watch videos.

I am 60 years old and have a dead end job. At least I may have new networking skills that I may be able to market some day. I am taking the BSCI course from you and will go all the way to CCNP. I passed the CCNA test on the first shot. And will be taking the BSCI exam soon.

-James Brochu

There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that TrainSignal is the best IT training in the world (are you kidding me?). I cannot emphasize enough how valuable your training videos have been to me (and my family).

About four years ago I stumbled into the field of IT (with no prior experience whatsoever). Up until this point, I have basically trained myself by reading hundreds and hundreds of pages from books and documentation. Needless to say, this method takes a lot of time and committment. But the more I read, is the more I fell in love with the concepts of networking.

What's my point? You guys make the learning process (as it relates to networking) almost too damn easy! And for that I am freaking ectstatic. Just think about how much farther along I could have been, had I only known about TrainSignal from the beginning.

Chris Bryant: (I LOVE HIM). Not only is he a master of what he does, but also a master at teaching.

Whoever put this company and team together, is a genius. And whoever you are, kudos to you my friend. It will be interesting to read a profile about you.

TrainSignal is the networking enthusiast's best keep secret! Boot camps, and all of the other competition is garbage.

Sincerely,

-Sheldon Sharpe
