Course Content

Troubleshooting and Maintaining Cisco IP Networks (TSHOOT) v1.0 is a five-day course designed to help network professionals hone the skills and knowledge needed to maintain their network and to diagnose and resolve network problems quickly and effectively. It also assists the network professional in preparing for Cisco CCNP certification. The TSHOOT course is a component of the CCNP curriculum.

The TSHOOT course is designed to teach professionals that work in complex network environments the necessary skills to maintain their networks and to diagnose and resolve network problems quickly and effectively. The course will provide information about troubleshooting and maintaining particular technologies, as well as procedural and organizational aspects of the troubleshooting and maintenance process. A large part of the training will consist of practicing these skills and reinforcing the concepts by putting them to use in a controlled environment. At the end of the course, the learners will have increased their skill level and developed as set of best practices based on their own and other learners' experiences that they can take back to their organizations.

In addition to the 5-day instructor-led training the TSHOOT course includes e-learning modules.
