Networking, IP connectivity, network security, and network automation are some of the topics you'll cover as you prepare for the 200-301 CCNA, the one exam you need to pass to earn the new Cisco Certified Network Associate v2.0 certification.

Cover a broad range of networking fundamentals you'll need for your career in IT technologies:

Understand routers, L2 and L3 switches, next-generation firewalls (NGFWs), and wireless access points (WAPs)
Implement static routing and dynamic routing protocols, such as OSPF (Open Shortest Path First)
Explain and configure IP services, including NAT, NTP, DHCP, DNS, SNMP, QoS, and SSH
Understanding Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), trunk ports, 802.1Q, and Native VLAN
Configure and verify IPv4 and IPv6 Internet Protocol addressing
Define security concepts, such as threats, vulnerabilities, and multi-factor authentication (MFA)
Implement site-to-site VPN, access control lists (ACLs), and Layer 2 security features
Understand wireless LAN (WLAN) and wireless security protocols, such as WPA, WPA2, and WPA3
Configure the Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP), Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP), and EtherChannel (LACP)
Describe controller-based networks, software-defined networks (SDN), network programmability, Cisco DNA Center, Puppet, Chef, and Ansible

Start this series today to prepare for the new CCNA certification, which goes live on February 24, 2020.
