Spring 2014 Davis Room 311, Tuesday-Thursday, 10:30-11:45am

Instructor: Ken Cuddeback Offices: EH 379 or Davis 308F Email: kcuddeback@weber.edu Phone: 626-6026 Web: faculty.weber.edu/kcuddeback Class Room: Davis 311 Text: CCNA Security Course Booklet, Version 1.1, Cisco Press, 2009. ISBN: 1587132486 / ISBN 13: 9781587132483 Optional Learning Objectives:

The Cisco CCNA Security curriculum provides a comprehensive overview of contemporary network security, helping Cisco Networking Academy students systematically prepare for the latest CCNA Security exam. While extensive online study resources are available, many students and instructors have requested a low-cost printed resource that can be used to study in places where Internet access may not be available. This booklet is that resource. Drawn directly from the online curriculum, it covers every skill and competency. This booklet enables you to study offline, highlight key points, and take handwritten notes. Its text is extracted word-for-word from the online course, and headings with exact page correlations link to the online course for classroom discussions and exam preparation. In addition, a set of icons directs you to the online Cisco Networking Academy curriculum to take full advantage of the images, labs, Packet Tracer activities, and dynamic Flash-based activities provided there. Prerequisite: TBE 2415 and 2435 or CCNA certification is required before you can successfully complete this course, NO exceptions. Policies: 1. Attendance: As always is completely optional, but due to the intensity of this class attendance will

become very important. I will lecture on Monday’s; Wednesday’s will be used for in-class lab time. Because of the time this class is offered, many students cannot attend because of work conflicts so you will be responsible for all information discussed in class. Keep up with the reading outside of class and make friends with someone who will take notes for you. The labs will be completed using Packet Tracer and/or the Netlabs equipment pods. All lab assignments will be emailed to me or my lab assistant for grading.

2. Quizzes/Assignments: Quizzes will be available 24/7 and may be taken twice, open book from any computer. The Final will be taken in class on the scheduled final date. Practical labs will be graded on successful completion and entered into the Cisco Academy grade book.

3. Ethics: Failure to maintain academic ethics/academic honesty including the avoidance of cheating, plagiarism, collusion, and falsification will result in a E in the course, and may result in charges being issued, hearings being held and/or sanctions being imposed.

4. Special Needs: Any student requiring accommodations or services due to a disability must contact Services for Students with Disabilities (SSD) in room 181 of the Student Service Center. SSD can also arrange to provide course materials (including this syllabus) in alternative formats if necessary. Grading: Quizzes 25%

Packet Tracer Activities 25% NetLabs Activities 25%

Final Exam 25% Labs will be the most important part of this class comprising of 50% of your grade, lectures will be on Monday’s and are optional but important, labs can be done in class on Wednesday’s or on your own time. You will be required to use both Packet Tracer and Netlabs to complete the lab activities. Everyone will be required to complete and hand in (email) all lab and Packet Tracer activities. NetLab will automatically save all your router/switch configurations and email them to me. So it will be very important for you to save your last configuration into a folder and label it with the lab name and your name before your time period elapses. This will ensure that I don’t delete the one you want graded. All chapter quizzes count toward your final grade but you will be able to complete them from home open book. I can only activate quizzes one week at a time so if you find that they are not active when you attempt to take one, send me an email and I’ll usually be able to activate them within minutes. Final will be taken in class on the day scheduled for the final this semester, it will be comprehensive. The following schedule is not binding but a strong suggestion so don't try to be a hero and do all the chapter quizzes during finals week. _Week of________________________ January 6 Introduction to course _________________________ January 13 Chapter 1 – Modern Network Security Threats
