STP and EtherChannel Operation and Configuration

Course Overview
Hi, everyone. My name is Ross Bagurdes and welcome to my course STP and either channel operation and configuration. I'm a network engineer with more than 20 years experience building and managing enterprise networks and teaching people about them. Understanding how Ethernet works in an enterprise environment is one of the most common skills required by a network engineer or network technician. STP or spanning tree protocol is a mandatory protocol required to prevent Layer two networks from crashing, and either channel will allow us to provide more bandwidth between devices when required. In this course, we will learn about creating redundant layer. Two networks with spanning three protocol and rapid spanning tree protocol will build redundant links between switches using either channel and understand how the land shrunk ING protocol works and also discovering why you might not want to use that protocol. By the end of this course, you will be able to design and implement a redundant layer to network that can converge and less than a second, as well as increased the band with between to switch up links using ether channel. Before beginning this course, you should be familiar with Cisco Catalyst switch configuration 802.1 q trunk operation and Access Port operation, which can be learned in the previous videos in the CCN. A Learning Path. I hope you'll join me on this journey toe. Learn to build layer to redundant networks with the STP and either channel operation and configuration course at Pluralsight.
