Implementing Cisco SD-WAN Solutions v3.0 (ENSDWI)

Description

The Implementing Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Solutions (ENSDWI) training helps you design, deploy, configure, and manage the Cisco software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) solution in a large-scale network, including how to migrate from legacy WAN to Cisco SD-WAN. You will learn best practices for configuring routing protocols in the data center and the branch, and how to implement advanced control, data, and application-aware policies. This training also covers placement of controllers, how to deploy WAN Edge devices, multicast and quality of service (QoS), how to configure direct internet access (DIA) breakout, and various Application Quality of Experience (AppQoE) traffic optimization capabilities.

This training prepares you for the 300-415 ENSDWI v1.2 exam. If passed, you earn the Cisco Certified Specialist – Enterprise SD-WAN Implementation certification and satisfy the concentration exam requirement for the Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) Enterprise certification.

This training will help you:

• Establish a transport-independent WAN for lower cost and higher flexibility 
• Meet service level agreements (SLAs) for business-critical and real-time applications
• Provide secure end-to-end segmentation for protecting critical enterprise compute resources
• Extend seamlessly into the public cloud
• Optimize the user experience for software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications
• Prepare for the 300-415 ENSDWI v1.2 exam
• Earn 32 CE credits toward recertification
