[EduardoSotomayor7124]

what a ccna has to be capable of?, I mean in the field what can a ccna set up in a router or switch?

how are those capabilities different from a ccnp? what can a ccnp do that a ccna can't

Depends on organisation structure, depends on experiece.

Someplace Prefer CCNA on basic level LAN/ WAN

CCNP for Advanced Level 2 / Levle 3 - give opportunity more tasks.

Someplace i have seen CCNA does everything. - choose the right boss, he will give you or teach you the right direction.

Does a ccna has to know route maps, mpls, vrf, advance BGP, dmvp or NBAR

My Personal Point of you as per the Career growth Plan, Network / Security Engineer one should know everything - how they work, it may not be necessary you use all of them, but being the technical person you should have hands-on, use it when required.

Some environment may not required, some environment you required all your hands on..so when get opportunity learning everything what you can.

Hi @EduardoSotomayor7124 

The technologies mentioned are not contemplated in the CCNA curriculum.
Now, I have seen CCNA graduates who have this knowledge because of the role they play in their work, as some are trained by courses or self-studies.

I tell you that I have seen people with CCNP who are very deficient in technical matters as well.
I believe that the technical issue depends a lot on the person and their desire to overcome and understand the technologies.
