Key Learning Objectives

Upon successful completion of the 4A0-100: Alcatel-Lucent Scalable IP Networks certification course, participants will have acquired a comprehensive understanding of scalable IP networking and will be capable of:

1. Designing Scalable IP Networks: Participants will learn how to design scalable IP networks that support increasing traffic loads and complex requirements. They will understand key factors in network design, such as redundancy, high availability, and load balancing, which are essential for modern enterprise networks.

2. Configuring and Implementing Routing Protocols: The course covers key routing protocols (such as OSPF, BGP, and RIP) that are crucial for effective routing in large-scale networks. Learners will gain hands-on experience configuring and managing these protocols to ensure optimal traffic flow and network efficiency.

3. Managing IPv6 and IPv4 Addressing: Participants will deepen their understanding of both IPv4 and IPv6 addressing. The course covers practical techniques for transitioning from IPv4 to IPv6, alongside addressing schemes, subnetting, and the configuration of IPv6 routing protocols.

4. Implementing Quality of Service (QoS): One of the key focuses of the course is ensuring that network traffic is effectively prioritized to maintain quality. Participants will learn how to implement QoS policies to manage bandwidth, control congestion, and ensure that critical traffic is delivered with minimal delay.

5. Optimizing Network Performance: Scalable IP networks require constant monitoring and fine-tuning. The course will teach learners how to optimize network performance through techniques such as traffic shaping, link aggregation, and fault tolerance.

6. Troubleshooting and Network Maintenance: Learners will gain practical skills in troubleshooting network issues. The course covers techniques for identifying and resolving common problems within IP networks, from connectivity failures to routing misconfigurations.

7. Securing IP Networks: Security is a vital concern in all network environments. This course covers methods for securing scalable IP networks, including the configuration of firewalls, VPNs, and access control policies. Participants will learn to protect sensitive data and prevent unauthorized access to the network.

8. Integrating Alcatel-Lucent Networking Solutions: The course introduces students to Alcatel-Lucent’s specific technologies and devices. Learners will become familiar with how to integrate Alcatel-Lucent routers, switches, and network management tools into a scalable IP network design.
