Course overview

HCIA-Datacom is the most requested Huawei credential in GCC enterprise and government tenders. This program builds solid networking fundamentals while teaching the Huawei-specific CLI, tooling and terminology the exam expects.

Roughly half of the time is hands-on in eNSP, so participants leave able to configure real Huawei switches and routers, not only pass a test.

Who should attend

  • Network engineers new to Huawei
  • IT support staff moving into networking
  • Graduates and technicians targeting HCIA-Datacom
  • Teams preparing for Huawei-based projects

Prerequisites

  • Basic IT literacy
  • No prior networking certification required
  • Laptop able to run eNSP

Learning objectives

  1. 1Explain TCP/IP, Ethernet and IP addressing
  2. 2Configure VLANs, trunks, STP and link aggregation on CloudEngine
  3. 3Configure static routing, OSPF and basic BGP on NetEngine/AR
  4. 4Implement ACL, NAT, DHCP and basic security
  5. 5Pass the HCIA-Datacom exam

Frequently asked questions

No. This is an independent Teleriu program taught by engineers with hands-on Huawei deployment experience. Where a course is aligned to an HCIA/HCIP exam we cover the published exam domains, but the certificate issued is a Teleriu certificate of completion; the Huawei exam is booked separately by the participant.

Live online programs are delivered in real time by an instructor over video with shared labs and interactive Q&A. Classroom programs are delivered face to face in Dubai or other GCC locations, with the instructor and lab environment in the room. Both use the same curricula and instructors.

Programs are built on 3GPP, O-RAN and industry standards and are vendor-agnostic by default. Corporate deliveries can include vendor-specific parameter mapping and scenarios where required.

Participants who complete a program receive a Teleriu certificate of completion. Teleriu programs are professional technical training and are not affiliated with any certification body unless explicitly stated.
