We provide virtual course about understand wireless technology. This training will give you a good understanding of Wireless Network technology. There is no lab exercises in this training. Instructor will lecture and show demos during the course. The course will be tought from a Cisco perspective.
Course outline:
1) Introduction to wireless networking:
• What is wireless
What do the standards actually mean:
• MIMO
• QAM
• Beamforming
• Channels
• Frequencies
• A bit on physics (and wireless is all physics) such as things like the Fresnel zone
How WiFi antennae work:
• Various indoor and outdoor antennae
• Basic antennae math (things like gain and attenuation)
• How does a well designed wireless network impact the clients (coverage, battery drain, interference…)
Learn to right-size a network:
• Mostly how too little is too little
• Too much is often worse than too little
• Example: How the height of the ceiling can mean that adding more access points can stop the clients from seeing them
Basic wireless security:
• WPA2/WPA3
• Web authentication
• Captive portals
• Radius
A short visit to Wireless QoS:
• Operational issues
• Interference
• Monitoring
2) Cisco Wireless Networking:
• Cisco’s 100 different types of wireless networks
• Controller is still king
• Initial configuration of a controller based Cisco Wireless network
• Controller setup
• VLANs
• WLANs
• Authentication, authorization and accounting
• Basic security setup
• Basic monitoring and management
