CCNA is first of all a factory certification, an international pass, and an all-English exam. Need to have a high school English foundation, and the recognition and gold content in the network industry are the first of its kind. CCNA certification certificate is valid for 3 years. After 3 years, if you need to take the re-certification exam or apply for a higher level exam, it will remain valid. CCNA belongs to Cisco after-sales engineer certification, which mainly involves the basic network protocol and the basic configuration of Cisco router switches.
