Implementing Cisco Catalyst 9000 Switches (ENC9K)

Summary

This hands-on course covers many features of the Cisco IOS XE platform and describes how to manage devices from a single dashboard, the Cisco DNA Center. You will learn how to use the Cisco Catalyst 9000 family of switches to enable Software Defined Access (SD-Access) and provide end-to-end security and automation with centralized management using DNA Center.

Prerequisites

It is recommended, but not required, to have the following skills and knowledge before attending this course:

• Cisco CCNP Routing and Switching certification or equivalent experience
• Knowledge of configuring LAN routing and switching with legacy Cisco Catalyst switches
• Familiarity with the Cisco IOS XE operating system
• Awareness of Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) as an authentication platform and policy manager

Duration

3 Days/Lecture & Lab

Audience

Network engineers, designers, managers, and system engineers who are adopting Cisco Digital Network Architecture (Cisco DNA) and will use Cisco Catalyst 9000 Switches to enable an SD-Access solution provisioned with DNA Center.
