Overview

Courseware for this course is provided digitally. Students will require a device to access their course material. If they do not have one, we can provide this upon their arrival at the Training Centre

Firebrand Training Official Cisco Learning Partner

This course is designed to give you advanced knowledge of network design using Cisco's SONA (Service Oriented Network Architecture) methodology. During the course, you'll discuss, design, and create advanced addressing and routing, security, data center, and IP multicast multi-layered enterprise architectures. This includes virtual private networking and wireless domains and it focuses on the design components of larger networks. The course will prepare you for the Cisco CCDP (Cisco Certified Design Professional) exams which you'll sit on the course.

Upon completion of this course, you'll be able to:

  • Build scalable internet works
  • Build multilayer-switched networks
  • Design network service architectures
