Cisco Certified Support Technician (CCST) Networking (100-150)

The Cisco Certified Support Technician (CCST) Networking (100-150) course teaches exactly that kind of practical, step-by-step thinking. The course opens with the essential concepts every technician needs. You will learn how networks are organized, what bandwidth, throughput, and latency mean for users, and how protocols such as TCP, UDP, DHCP, DNS, and HTTP work. Network models are introduced to help you understand where in the communication process a problem might occur.

You will then study the physical and logical connections that make networks work. Topics include IPv4 and IPv6 addressing, public and private address ranges, an introduction to subnetting, copper and fiber cabling, connectors and wireless standards. You will configure end devices, learn the roles of switches, routers, access points, and firewalls, and practice accessing devices through the console and SSH.

Troubleshooting is at the heart of the course. You will apply a structured troubleshooting methodology and use tools such as ping, traceroute, ipconfig, nslookup, and basic device commands to identify and resolve faults. Security fundamentals, including wireless and endpoint security, help you keep networks protected. This CCST Networking certification training aligns with the 100-150 exam and supports reliable day-to-day IT support.
