Good basic knowledge of TCP/IP and networks is just as much a prerequisite as the content taught in the LANCOM Professional Workshop WAN / WLAN / Switch / Cloud. These will not be repeated in this workshop.

The LANCOM Specialist Workshop Unified Firewall teaches you the most important firewall skills you need for planning, commissioning and administering a medium-sized local network with LANCOM devices.

Contents of the exam
The LANCOM Certified Specialist Unified Firewall exam is based on the contents of the LANCOM Specialist Workshop Unified Firewall course.

The LANCOM certification exam is valid for 24 months from the day of passing.

Practical exam (from July 01, 2024)
From July 01, 2024 you will be presented with a scenario according to your workshop, which you will work through independently. Our experts will evaluate your solution and let you know within 2 working days whether you have passed.

Participants of our trainer-led classroom events: Certification is taken following the workshop as a “practical exam” in the classroom. Typically on Friday morning. The exam is part of the course price.
Participants of our re-certifiers/repeaters: We offer separate practical examination dates at regular intervals for a maximum of eight candidates per date. You purchase the exam separately.
The exams take place remotely, i.e. via video conference. You work on a standard lab workstation at the LANCOM Training Center. All you need is your knowledge, stable web access and an ID card.
For both options (in the classroom or remotely), please allow approx. 30 minutes for the preliminary discussion and 60 minutes for the practical implementation of the scenario. Please note that we will need to verify your identity. Please have your identity card ready for this.
You will be deemed to have passed the practical certification if you have completed at least 80% of the scenario correctly.

The certification is considered passed if you have solved at least 80% of the tasks correctly.

The maximum processing time is 60 minutes.

The following devices will be used in the workshop (provided by LANCOM):

• LANCOM R&S Unified Firewall (e.g. LANCOM UF-60 or a LANCOM vFirewall)
• PC/notebook with Windows 10 or Windows 11
