Welcome to “Hands on Cisco Packet Tracer: Network Services Labs” – a comprehensive, hands-on course designed to give you practical skills in configuring, securing, and managing network infrastructure using Cisco devices and Packet Tracer simulations.

This course is perfect for aspiring network engineers, system administrators, IT students, or professionals looking to deepen their knowledge of network operations. Starting from the basics, we’ll guide you through key network services and protocols that are essential for real-world network environments.

You’ll begin by learning how to configure routers and switches to participate in DNS, TFTP, and FTP operations—understanding why it's critical for devices to resolve domain names and manage files efficiently. We’ll explore secure remote access using SSH and demonstrate how to enhance authentication through RADIUS and AAA (Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting) configurations.

The course then moves into essential network services like Syslog for centralized logging, NTP for time synchronization, and SNMP for monitoring device health. You’ll also get a hands-on look at NetFlow, enabling you to see traffic patterns for better visibility and analysis.

Each topic is accompanied by Packet Tracer labs that simulate real-world setups—ensuring you gain not just theoretical understanding but also configuration experience.

By the end of this course, you’ll have the skills to:

• Configure DNS, FTP, TFTP on Cisco routers and switches

• Secure your network using SSH and AAA

• Monitor and audit network activity using Syslog, NTP, SNMP, and NetFlow

• Transfer IOS images and backups using FTP

• Build a strong foundation in managing Cisco networks practically and efficiently
