Implementing Cisco SD-WAN Solutions (ENSDWI) v3.0
The Implementing Cisco SD-WAN Solutions (ENSDWI) v3.0 course is a comprehensive training program designed to provide network professionals with the knowledge and skills necessary to design, deploy, configure, and manage a Cisco Software-Defined WAN (SD-WAN) solution in a large-scale live network. This course covers the Cisco SD-WAN architecture and components, including WAN Edge platform types and capabilities such as vEdges and cEdges.Learners will gain hands-on experience with controller deployment, both cloud and on-premises, and will understand how to configure certificates, whitelist, and troubleshoot connectivity issues. The course also delves into WAN Edge deployment, data plane configuration, Overlay Management Protocol (OMP), Transport Location (TLOC), and feature configuration templates. Advanced topics include control policies, data policies, application-aware routing, direct Internet access, and service insertion, along with Quality of Service (QoS) and application-aware firewall settings. The course further explores redundancy, high availability, scalability, management, and operations through vManage, and REST API monitoring. By completing this course, learners will be well-prepared to implement and manage a Cisco SD-WAN solution, enhancing their ability to support network infrastructure and achieve operational efficiency.
