Cisco Adds Wireless Certs
11/6/2002 -- Late last month, Cisco added two wireless networking titles to its line of specialty certifications: Wireless LAN Design Specialist and Wireless LAN Support Specialist.
According to Cisco, these titles are designed to certify that candidates have "significant knowledge of relevant factors involved in deploying Cisco Wireless LAN solutions."
Knowledge and skills tested by the new titles include radio technologies associated with WLAN 802.11 standards; WLAN and bridge topologies and applications; configuring WLAN products, including access points, bridges, client devices and accessories; Aironet software and management features; and various security methods for Wireless LAN environments, among others.
To earn one of these titles, candidates must hold Cisco's CCDA (for the Design title) or CCNA (for the Support title) and then pass one exam. The exams are currently available at Prometric and Vue testing centers worldwide.
