NDG Linux I

By Cisco Networking Academy in collaboration with NDG


For fans of Linux who want to move into advanced skills

This is the course for you. It’s designed for aspiring, career-minded Linux system administrators, who want to advance their skills and prepare for either the LPIC-1 or CompTIA Linux+ Certifications. NDG Linux I provides hands-on labs and activities, ensuring that you grow your expertise. Expect to perform maintenance tasks on the command line, install and configure a computer running Linux, and configure basic networking, using virtual machines running Linux. No prerequisite knowledge required, however the concepts in this course are covered at a more challenging pace than in NDG Linux Essentials. This is the first course in a 2-course series with NDG Linux II.
