What You Will Learn
This course covers the CompTIA CloudNetX CNX-001 objectives, with a focus on advanced hybrid cloud networking, secure architecture, operations, monitoring, automation, and troubleshooting.
Module 1: Network Architecture Design
Apply OSI, IPv4, IPv6, subnetting, CIDR, VLSM, NAT, DHCP, DNS, OSPF, BGP, and network virtual interfaces to architecture decisions.
Compare mesh, star, hub-and-spoke, spine-and-leaf, and point-to-point topologies.
Plan hybrid connectivity using MPLS, SD-WAN, VPN, ExpressRoute, Direct Connect, VPC peering, private link, transit gateways, and service endpoints.
Review availability patterns, including load balancing, active-active, active-passive, autoscaling, redundancy, regions, availability zones, and CDNs.
Module 2: Network Security
Analyze cloud and network threats, vulnerabilities, and mitigation options.
Apply Zero Trust architecture concepts such as microsegmentation, SASE, SSE, CASB, identity as the perimeter, device trust, least privilege, and Zero Trust network access.
Review wireless and administrative security controls, including WPA2, WPA3, 802.1X, RADIUS, TACACS+, patch management, log management, and restricted management access.
Module 3: Operations, Monitoring, and Performance
Use traffic analysis, SNMP, Syslog, SIEM, telemetry, QoS, dashboards, metrics, and continuous monitoring.
Practice automation concepts using IaC, YAML, JSON, APIs, SDKs, CLI tools, CI/CD, GitOps, version control, and secrets management.
Module 4: Troubleshooting and Practical Skills
Use structured troubleshooting methods for connectivity, performance, Wi-Fi, access, and security issues.
Work with tools and commands such as Wireshark, Nmap, Netcat, Iperf, OpenSSL, Postman, tcpdump, dig, mtr, ping, traceroute, curl, ss, snmpwalk, and nfdump.
Complete scenario-based labs and case studies that support preparation for performance-based exam tasks and real hybrid network architecture work.
Certification & Exam
This course prepares participants for the CompTIA CloudNetX certification, earned by passing the CNX-001 exam.
The certification validates architect-level skills in secure hybrid cloud and network environments, including network architecture design, network security, operations, monitoring, performance, automation, scripting, and troubleshooting.
To certify, candidates should complete training, study the official exam objectives, buy an exam voucher, schedule the exam through Pearson VUE, and pass the assessment. The exam includes up to 90 multiple-choice and performance-based questions, lasts 165 minutes, and is graded pass/fail with no scaled score.
CompTIA recommends at least 10 years of IT experience, five years in a network architect role, hybrid cloud experience, and Network+, Security+, and Cloud+ or equivalent knowledge. Reference: CompTIA CloudNetX.
What You Will Achieve
After completing the CompTIA CloudNetX course, participants will be able to:
Analyze business and technical requirements to plan secure network architectures for hybrid cloud and on-premises environments, using concepts such as OSI, IPv4, IPv6, CIDR, VLSM, NAT, PAT, DNS, DHCP, OSPF, BGP, VLAN, VXLAN, and GENEVE.
Design hybrid connectivity using options such as MPLS, SD-WAN, VPN, bastion hosts, SSH, RDP, Azure ExpressRoute, AWS Direct Connect, SDCI, transit gateways, VPC peering, service endpoints, and private link.
Evaluate availability and resilience requirements, then recommend suitable approaches such as load balancing, active-active or active-passive high availability, link aggregation, autoscaling, regions, availability zones, CDNs, fault domains, and redundant devices or paths.
Apply network security controls for hybrid environments, including Zero Trust architecture, microsegmentation, SASE, SSE, CASB, identity as the perimeter, device trust, least privilege, Zero Trust network access, secure protocol configuration, and restricted administrative access.
Implement monitoring and performance practices using traffic analysis, centralized logging, SIEM, Syslog, JSON, SNMP, QoS, telemetry, dashboards, alerts, metrics, and continuous monitoring of bandwidth and resource use.
Use automation and scripting concepts to administer hybrid cloud networks, including infrastructure as code, YAML, JSON, version control, secrets management, CI/CD pipelines, GitOps, APIs, SDKs, CLI tools, configuration baselines, and change management.
Troubleshoot connectivity, performance, access, and security issues using structured methods and tools such as Wireshark, Netcat, Nmap, Iperf, radclient, OpenSSL, Postman, tcpdump, dig, mtr, arp, netstat, curl, ping, nslookup, traceroute, snmpwalk, and nfdump.
Create architecture and operations documentation, including physical and logical network diagrams, high-level and low-level designs, flow diagrams, runbooks, baselines, reference architectures, knowledge base articles, and CMDB records.
