Module 1 Summary
Before students move on to Module 2, they must be able to cable the lab setup, identify all
external relevant ports, and identify internal router components.
Online assessment options include the end-of-module online quiz in the curriculum and the
online Module 1 exam. Consider introducing formative assessments, where the instructor
supervises the students as they work on the router setup. The use of formative assessments
can be very valuable while students work through this router-intensive and IOS-intensive
course.

•
WAN and LAN concepts
•
Role of a router in WANs and LANs
•
WAN protocols
•
How to configure console connections
