Would the CCNA(Cisco certified network associate) course be good for a service engineer for hospital equipment?
The CCNA is the entry-level Cisco certification. It proves that you have the basic knowledge needed to configure Cisco routers and switches. Before taking the course you are expected to have a handle on the basics of networks and commonly used network protocols. You should have a basic understanding of the TCP/IP protocol suite and know how to subnet TCP/IP networks. You should also understand the basic purposes of routers and switches though you don’t need to know how to configure them. If you don’t have the basics of networking under your belt, you should first work on the CompTIA Network + certification. Go here for information on that: http://www.comptia.org/certifications/li… . That will cover the basics of computer networking, common network protocols, subnetting TCP/IP, file sharing, permissions, and basic security standards of computer networks. Once you have that down, start on the CCNA. If
