This chapter covers the following topics that you will need to master as a CCDP:
·
Examining campus LAN technologies--This section discusses campus local-area
network (LAN) technologies from a design perspective.
·
Defining LAN interconnection methods--This section discusses the logical and
physical connections that exist at the OSI Layer 2.
·
Defining VLANs--This section defines virtual LANs (VLANs) and discusses their
role in a successful campus LAN design strategy.
Cisco expects the successful CCDP candidate to be able to use campus LAN design models
to render a cost-effective solution that will meet the client's requirements for scalability and
stability. The CID exam tests your knowledge of how OSI Layer 2 functionality can be
integrated into a successful network design.
